    What bike do you have, and what transmission does it have?
    You should be able to start the bike by putting your foot on the brake, and going through the normal routine...

    If it's got the SE-5 transmission; just put your foot on the brake pedal, and the bike will start in gear, and shift to neutral by itself.

    Did you push the kill switch back to the run position? Maybe try pushing it on and off a few times and see if it will work then.
