does it start with the kill switch in, if so i would guess its not disconnecting the contacts , strip it down and inspect

poss when you push in the switch it isnt breaking or making the connection , you will have to take it apart to see

Try a good blast of WD40 in it. That usually sorts out 'iffy' switches.

This is the only part of my bike that has failed me (so far). Its quite easy to take off break open and inspect and reasonably cheap (£40.00) to replace, if necessary.

Its better to do it as sooner rather than later, I've read of a number of guys who have been left stranded as a result of faulty switch.

Guys, if you have any problems with kill switches, then buy a new one. Once they start playing up, usually due to corrosion, then they should be replaced. Not only do they cause starting problems but the last thing you want on a hefty v twin is the bike cutting out mid corner
