I have a Chinese Dirt Bike named "terminator". This bike was manufactured in 2005. The key switch was broke when I bought the bike. It looks like it was ripped apart. The bike works when kickstarted. However when you try to use the electric starter, it does nothing. When you apply voltage directly to the electric starter (bypassing solenoid and all) it cranks the engine. I do not know if the switch has anything to do with this or not. I would think the bike's been modified to run without the key at all, but would like to know if anyone has any experience with these bikes electrical systems. I found a retailer online selling the key switch that has the same connector and color wires that my broke switch has (red, green, black, black/white) at this link: http://www.scooterpartsrus.com/4_stroke_electrical.htm
My item's description is "4 stroke ignition key switch #2".
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
G

Stop sniffling.
Kick start the bike like most dirt bike riders.
You really should not wear loafers while riding.

Actually, you found the part. Almost any ignition switch like this will work.
Being a Chinese bike, you should not have to worry about it getting stolen.
