IT WANTS TO GET GOING!

First off, make sure that the harness connector for the switch is still plugged in. You may have to trace it back through the handlebar cover to find it unless you already know its location. Otherwise, its possible that the contacts in the switch stuck after sitting all summer. If thats the case, you could try freeing them up, but not many of the switches are serviceable and you may have to replace it.

Rev kill switches were poorly designed.

Very true. They are notorius for this. The spring inside the switch becomes to weak to make the contact. They are not dificult to take apart and replace the spring.

I have an '03. After my buddies went out on his '04, I started just pulling the toggle off instead of using the kill switch. Not sure if that does more harm than good, but at least my kill switch doesn't have any problems!
