I don't know where to get one aside from maybe ebay. I do know that in the mean time, you can jumper the Purple/Yellow that plugs into that and be on your way. It will however, crank in gear if you're not careful.

Re: Clutch start switch

What's broken about it?

Doesn't look like it broke the way mine eventually did; the end where the shaft thing plugs into the hole in the pedal, wore completely through.

Maybe there's some way to repair / rig it?

If it's just broken plastic, and a clean break at that, try Loctite 495.

^like he said some good lock tight. That's how I fixed my turn signal!

Wrecking yards is a good choice too
