Yup. That's a switch that comes with the electrical connector plus the choke cable.

Thanks guys. Got it in the mail and it was all rusty and the cable housing was chewed up. But It works. I'll find a new one soon.

Thanks for the help though and it was my first venture into motorcycle work. After only cutting myself twice with the little spring, it works as it should.

Well there you go. The bike drew First Blood and you are happy about it.

Augh. Hundred bucks (seems to be going rate on a quick google for the electrical assembly on that part #) on ebay right now for a $10 cable -.-

Has anyone glanced at this thing? I'm working on getting mine back together (the choke never worked properly on it since I nabbed it, found out it was due to the cable being snapped halfway down it.. wasn't an issue in the summer). Sadly, it was too dark once I got some of the grime cleaned off last night to take a close look at the assembly to see if there's even a way to attach a new cable without discombobulating the whole assembly, or if it's intentionally designed as one piece this way.

There are several different diameters of bicycles cables that you can buy in a variety pack - those might work.

Nada, don't think so. I haven't cracked open the housing on it to check yet, but as far as I'm seeing, as was reported earlier on here, only way to get ahold of this thing is to either pick it up from a parted out bike, or MAAAYBE see if a suzuki dealer has one. I'm assuming they still will, because I think all the later models were still compatible?

Either way, assembly is like a hundred, and all the ones I've seen on ebay currently are missing the choke lever and cable. My google-fu is rusty.

Though if you have a link to the variety pack in question, I'll see if I can pop open mine sometime tomorrow morning after work and sleep and take a look whether it's a thing that can be done.

If you still have the housing, I'm just talking about the cable itself. I haven't seen the connection point in a long time, but you should be able to pull out the original cable, feed in some basic stock bike cable, and split the two together, saving the original ends to leave the connectors of each end stock.

careful though, bicycle cable is usually thinner than choke cable...
