I was also scrubbing eBay as well. If it can be fixed I'd rather do than over risking an eBay purchase.

The key fits the ignition. I can mail it to you with cash to fix or if the parts are easy to get on my side, that works too. I'm game either way!

My brother helped me put together my bike long ago and gave me his ignition switch. I'm trying to reel him back in to getting his bike going by refurbishing his gauge cluster:)

i think those are m4s. I've repaired a LOT of switches in my time. nothing special tbh. does that switch fit the key to the bike? if so, i can fix it pretty easily. or you can. i have a box of parts for these, if i remember ill take it down get some pics. they are pretty easy to work on

Having fooled with switches on my bike for the last 4 weeks, you'll save yourself a significant amount of headache by replacing it with a repop or finding one on eBay.

I looked at mine, and can't see how it would come apart without a fair bit of force.

Installed new regulator rectifier from Economy Cycle. Battery is definitely charging, but the voltage seems high at idle. Anywhere between 14v-15.3v. I took the RPMs up to roughly 3500, and it capped out at around 15.3v.

Note, there are no other electronics on the bike, aside from the coils. No headlight, taillight, dash light, etc.

This seems high. I have a lithium battery that's almost brand new if that makes a difference. Thoughts?

Took the Gray Ghost 421 out for a romp. It ran great in the cool mountain air somewhere in the George Washington National Forest.
