Side stand warning light switch for 900 SSD

I'll like to restore the warning light side stand switch which is lacking in my 1980 900 SS Darmah, but I haven't any clue about how it looks the original (if not from the Darmah spare parts list, a very small drawning) and where I can find a suitable one.
Have anyone adapted a switch for this purpose? Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance
Giovanni

the image is of a neutral light switch mechanically identical to side-stand but electrically the contacts are inverted n/o or n/c

look like this

Thanks a lot JAR, exactly what I needed.
If I have correctly understood the neutral switch when depressed closes the contact of the switch and the side stand opens it.
Can you tell me if there is a way to modify the electrical assembly a neutral switch to get it work as a stand switch?
