Thumbs up Clutch perch

The entire malfunction was my inexperience in re-installing the Clutch assembly on the new handle bar. I did not have the clutch perch firmly seated on the switch assembly therefore it would not actuate the micro switch. Received numerous responses with possible fixes.
Sorry should have posted fix before I've been really busy at work our Co. is solo Co. Hauling water to a Frac. in West Virginia. busy very busy I'm the Safety Manager Ride safely fearless
