it looks like the switch is broke... do you have to break it apart or does it come apart ?

This is just my opinion but I wouldn't mess with the roll over sensor. I wouldn't want my engine to continue to run if I rolled it. With fuel injection you may not run out of gas like a carburetor depending if the pump can pickup gas and on a four stroke the engine lubrication will be effected with the engine upside down. A two stroke would be different since the lubrication is done with the fuel/oil mixture running through the engine.
If you are having problems with the sensor shutting the engine off when jumping or going over whoops, I would make sure it is mounted correctly and if it is then see if a replacement fixes the problem.

Again its just my opinion but some of the safety devices are there for good reason.

I flipped at the Ironman GNCC and when I rolled it back over I kept trying to fire it, finally turned the key off and back on and it fired right up. Could cost you a little time in race situations but I'm leaving mine as is.
