Hi , they are on ebay new from time to time...if you have an 85 that's the only year lever that will work...86 ' 87 and 88 on up are the same . Good luck .
our original 85 we bought new, 2 - 86 police specials
250r dust runner
04 Yamaha kodiaK 450 snowbuster ! Brute Force 750 dust collector .
Bunch of es stuff I been buying for next builds....
Gone but lives on in my aching body the mighty 350x collection . A Beat 85 es im gonna rebuild
I did not know that thanks for the info
I have a broken one too.
Lever snapped because the choke cylinder was stuck.
About 2 weeks of soaking with penetrant, vibration, push pull, gently pry etc etc and I finally got the choke plunger to move.
Be VERY careful in trying to pull that loose.
Very delicate tabs hold it to the cable.
I had one so bad and nothing to lose, so I almost boiled it in vinegar and water...about 200 degrees
and it worked and didn't seem to hurt anything.
I just disconnected the cable and let it hang free so I could pull it
out
to choke....for now.
"for now" by definition on the farm is 7 years, btw.
Ya it looks like I'm going to have to buy a whole new switch or one of those little ones that go directly on the carb![]()
What year big red do you have ?

I cant seem to find the one I was looking at but it was something similar to this that would work on that carb
