I have a Suzuki Marauder. I went from nice weather (bike started fine) to cold/ foggy weather and the bike wouldn't start. It would when someone pushed me and i let out the clutch in second. When I touched the pin coming out of the clutch switch so that it would come out farther, the bike started. When I got back to nice weather, I didn't need to do that anymore. WHY??
Thanks

the contacts in the clutch switch need cleaning.take it apart and spray some contact cleaner in it.contact cleaner from radio shack.

I'll try that, so you think the moisture built up on the dirty contacts?
I've had no problem with it starting since I got back into dryer weather.

thanks
