I said in the beginning of the thread that I'm thinking it was a clutch start or brake light switch. Definately was cable/linkage activated because you can see the little tab on the clutch/brake lever for it. I still think it might have been a dealer add on because of the "wire holders" as you said Gilles, they look like the ones that route the harnesses in our Cubs unless they were taken off near the engine and repositioned back there.

Lew what say you?

Edit: that switch is cool. The Clum switch company seems to date back to the early 1900's and some of their early switches are looking like they might be of some value.
