    Starter button fell off.

    I am able to start it with needle nose pliers. I need to fix this properly. Is there a way to make this work a new way, or do I need to order a new part from partzilla?

    Thank you. I know y'all think new **** up all the time.

    Starter Button

    They are available from several sources. This is one:

    Check on EBay as well. Someone offers an aluminum button.

          I rewired a throttle assembly from an SR250 for my XS11. If you can find one, they have a much better designed starter button and you only have to solder 3 or 4 wire connections to make it work...

            I just put one of those kibokojoe buttons on an XS11. I got the aluminum one. Very nice!

              May as well order two buttons AND two springs as the other one on your bike is ready to break too
              kibokojoe makes a good product and was easy to deal with.
