Gt550 Suzuki Triple 1972 Rh Right Hand Handlebar Control Switch Starter Kill on 2040-parts.com
Hoopeston, Illinois, US
This control switch is from a 1972 Suzuki GT550 I bought with the intention of putting back on the road. As it turns out, it's in worse overall condition than I thought and worth more for parts, so I'll work an different project instead.
I don't know much about the history of the bike... best I can tell from the license plate and title, the bike was probably last on the road in 1984. The title was signed and dated as sold in 1987. The odometer reads 24,000 plus miles. The guy I got it from said he found it in a barn last February and after riding it around a field awhile it died. He said he put new points in it and it hasn't run since.
Before removing the switch I used the starter button to crank the engine. I didn't test any other part of the switch.
There's only 1 screw in the switch, because the screws were both missing. so I took one from the LH switch to hold the pieces together.
Please look closely at the pictures and ask questions if you need to before bidding.
I'll combine shipping with other items I have for sell if you happen to win multiple items.

‘Nemesis’ breaks UK electric car speed record
Sat, 29 Sep 2012An electric car – based on a second-hand Lotus Exige – has broken the UK electric car speed record with a speed of 151.6mph. We’re not entirely sure how relevant a new UK speed record for an electric car is, but let’s be parochial and report it anyway. The ‘Nemesis’ is an electric car built round a second hand Lotus Exige, bought off eBay, by a team of engineers in a shed in Norfolk and driven by an Estate Agent from Gloucestershire.
