Tom,
When I restored my Eldo, I used the Moto International replacement
switch, which I found to be quite good. It has the feature you are
looking for where if it is turned as far as possible clockwise, the
relay for the starter solenoid is by-passed and power is switched
directly to the solenoid ("the kind of switch that you twist to start
the bike"). This can be used as a back-up in case the starter relay
fails.

It works fine. Any one know of another after market source or does
some one make reproduction switches. Does Guzzi still sell them?
This is the kind of switch that you twist to start the bike.
