Hello all. Well it didn't take me long to tap into the 'source' here. 1985 K100RS, it was sitting under a tarp for several months before I bought it with the clutch cable broken. Battery was dead, put in a new one, still waiting for the cable to arrive. Turn on ignition and I get power at the dash and lights. Press the starter button and nothing.

I've fiddled with all the connections but not given it my best effort there yet. Hit them with dielectric grease and worked them a bit, but they did have some corrosion.
My thought is that I may be overlooking a safety switch? Or a bad connection to the starter? Any pointers would be appreciated. I'm going to spend the afternoon on it now, tracing electrical...
