50cc atv handle bar switch (Kazuma?)
Anyone know where to get a replacement for this part? I pulled a wire out of the handlebar switch and now I get a short which kills the spark. I can't seem to locate this part online anywhere. I believe it is from a Kazuma Meerkat. It was used when purchased so I am not 100% sure. It has kill / tether kill / and start lever.. All the replacement ones seem to have light switches where the wrist tether is located. If an acceptable alternative is compatable I am willing to rewire with guidance!
Thanks for any help.

I've never seen a switch like that. You could just do away with the tether kill switch part, or add your own tether switch later if you want it(it's easy to wire up).
A left handle bar kill switch is a nice safety feature - it allows killing the engine in an emergency without letting go of the handlebars (like with a stuck wide open throttle). That can always be wired up with any generic handlebar switch. The start button is a problem. Some switches have only a single wire for the start button (the other wire is ground, and shared with the kill switch). 110cc machines almost always use a two wire switch to switch 12 volts power from the brake light wire to the solenoid actuating coil.
So if you buy a generic 110cc quad handle bar switch there is a good chance that it can be wired up with a little probing around with a meter to find the right start button wires. Worst case is that we will have to add a push button switch elsewhere - but I think this is unlikely with a switch made for 110cc quads.
