Default Need starter switch spring

The handlebar starter switch spring isn't working on my 2011 Wide Glide. I have to manually push it back off after starting. Is it possible to replace just the spring? I'm trying to avoid buying a new switch. I can't seem to find just a spring.

I don't think the spring is sold separately. Maybe one of the smarter members here can add more insight to this.
You can buy a new switch from a dealer online for about $60. Or go around to a couple of dealers or indies and see if they have any take off controls you can grab.
