Sterter switch questions... *SOLVED*
Willow:
The issue is not the starter. It's the clutch switch.
The push rod at the lever wears. If it is worn too much it needs to be replaced. There are less expensive push rods for Suzukis.
I have one that is worn enough that I need to pull the lever in extra tightly to indicate the clutch is disengaged.

If you didn’t unstick the brass contact from being lodged in it’s groove and insure it can bounce up and down on the spring. You only addressed half the issue
I didn't know the 4 flat contacts were spring loaded. I'll have to check that out. Thanks!
Not those four oval contacts. The little brass thing with the two contacts. If it sticks down in its groove it looses contact with the four brass buttons

Thanks, will check that!

Ah, ok. I'm going to pull the switch again today. Thanks again for the help.

Just wanted to thank everyone that helped. Cleaning up the contacts worked. One wire was off of my clutch switch. :roll: Couldn't see it was off because the little sleeve was hiding it REAL well, lol.
Thanks again!
