Hi, I was in the process of re-routing my choke cable because I added a handlebar riser. When I disassembled the switch assembly where the choke lever is located, a spring fell out. I can't figure out where it came from and what it is for. Does anyone know where this spring belong? I appreciate anyone's help. Thanks.

hmm...im almost positive theres no spring in the choke switch. perhaps from the turn signal since that springs back on its own. thats the only thing i can think of in that area that is spring loaded
Hi,
I think it's no.7 in the schematic:

I remember about that spring from when I dissasembled my left side switch. I think it presses out on the tab (no. 8 ) holding the cable sleeve in place (probably to make it easier to remove).
i think it holds tension on the choke lever to keep it from coming off accidentily
Thanks guys. The drawing really helped out. Now I know that I am missing item 6, Spacer. Thanks again. :)
