Why does my my starter button keep burning out on my Kawasaki gpz500s?

Question:
I own a 1991 kawasaki gpz500s and the starter button keeps burning out i have had the starter solenoid replaced and a new spring put in the button aswell as the junction box because it blew two diodes. It worked fine for a day then the starter stuck on and the swich burnt out again i tapped the starter solenoid and that stopped the starter motor from sticking on and have had the bike checked out and it has blown the junction box again.

Answers:

How much is a 1975 Harley Sportster worth?

First off, the junction boxes of that era Kawasaki are garbage LOL
You said that you changed the starter button spring. I would try changing the complete handle bar switch. The button might be getting just a little cocked to where it won't spring back all the way. That might be why the solenoid stayed on. Tapping the solenoid, might have been enough of a shock to the bike (like the amount of shock tapping the gas tank woud send a vibration throughout the bike) to pop out the starter button. Just a suggestion. Without seeing the bike, that's all I can give you.
Good luck!
