You want an original "witches-hat" T/X kill switch.
It helps if you actually state that. So...

NO, you haven't got a hope in hell of getting one NOS. Leith has been searching for years. They appear on eBay every year or so and go for US$150

Even if you find one (I have one) they are usually very brittle or already badly damaged. Live with a standard one, or one of the earlier style, which are easier to find. Else, find someone to make new ones. I was going to get Rob to make some right around when he burnt to the ground...   :(

I have a black one with the Suzuki 'S' on the rubber but the rubber is tapered not squarish like those pictured here, It also doesn't have a clamp. What could it be off?

PMC57, i have one of those buttons. Black witches hat with suzuki logo. It was on a PE250 T and i feel it was original even though the sames brochure shows red. There were many options on the 1980 models regarding colour of horns, CDI units abd shock springs. There was probably half a dozen or more kill buttons suzuki had at the time and they would of put on what ever they had at the time. My 250Z had flat red button like frosty has shown and i reckon it was original because there are several differences between it and the aftermarket types you see. I think it was the melted black sheath to trhe wire. i think this was only done on the aftermarket switch or maybe the otherway around, i forgot, but one has it an one doesnt.
