    Thanks! I drained the case (reused the oil. Gonna do a few more changes to flush out the gas and re-lube everything) and pulled the switch. Sure enough; the contact nub was missing. Strained the jugs of oil/fuel that came with the bike, and found it! Spring was still in place, and after installing the contact and switch, everything functions great!
    Thanks again!
    I just love a happy ending!

    I also have to admit it's pretty satisfying when a wild/educated guess turns out to be correct.

    Thanks for reporting back -- I have no doubt this will be helpful to someone else sometime in the future.


    And thanks for the pic, Rich!

            The o-ring part number is 09280-26005; as with many (but not all) Suzuki part numbers for fasterners, seals, o-rings, etc., the 26 highlighted in the latter part indicates a 26mm nominal inside diameter ("09280" just seems to mean "o-ring"). As far as thickness, it's impossible to say without measuring the parts or a new o-ring.
