recently got a 2009 buddy 125 for my wife. the ignition switch is a little hinky sometimes after she turns it off you have to wiggle the key or remove the front cover and tap on the ignition switch to get it going. sounds like a loose wire or solder point in the switch to me and plan on just replacing the switch. my question is does anyone know any aftermarket/universal switches that work? oem is $90 so im just trying to save a few bucks
You might try a little Tri-flow in the ignition switch. I have noticed that the switch gets sticky after a couple of years use and Tri-flow will loosen it up again.
