OK, a little more information as to the symptoms I'm experiencing. Just started the bike and rode around the neighborhood for about 10-15 minutes. Bike started up third time after turning key off then on. No problems although it would sometimes stall at the stop signs. No problem just adjusted the choke up to idle. Every-time the bike stopped I restarted the bike immediately with the starter. Stalled only when idling and not a abnormal stall, just a slight sputter then fired right back up. Pulled into the drive stalled the bike on purpose restarted then rolled into the garage. Just to test my theory I turned the key to off and then tried to restart. Guess what, no starty no starty again. Something is not connecting and the source seem to be related to ignition switch. Could their be a short in this, and if so can I go around the switch (hot wire) to test the theory? I'm no expert with electrical trouble but that does seem to be the direction ever thing is pointing.
