switch
Years ago, I had the same problem with a switch I broke on my SRX. Found one in a Dennis Kirk snowmobile catalog. The red button was listed all by itself for $16. I thought too good to be true, however took the gamble and it was identical. Don't know if they still sell it, but worth a look. Hope this helps.

The RTA having switches is good to know.
I also broke mine off last season. I took the switch assembly apart and glued it back together, but on my last ride I hooked my glove on it and snapped it off again.
I asked my dealer last season for a price on it and the switch is something crazy like $200. I'll call them again Monday and see if they can get just the plastic piece through the RTA.
Right now there is enough left that if I hammer down on the switch with my glove it will shut down. The problem is the only way I can get the sled started again is to install a screw into the plastic and pull it back up.

if the switch is broke off with the button down, start the screw by itself, without the broke piece attached, then you just pull it up, in an emergency, or on the trail it can be ridden just fine like that
