The starter interlock switch? If that's what you're after, most are on the clutch lever mount, a small,spring loaded switch that pops out when the clutch lever is squeezed, closing the contacts & permitting the start button to work.

The wiring goes from the clutch mount, and then to the headlight housing.

That's your kickstand interlock switch. It keeps you from starting the bike in gear with the kickstand down.

Please try to avoid sending .doc files. They are notoriously dangerous to open because they can contain viruses and what have you.
