      It doesnt as I mentioned in my initial post.  You still need two switches as this
      schematic does not show the switch to engage the starter.  The switch in this
      schematic simply selected between start power and backup power, but doesnt
      address the need to hold the start power switch while keeping one hand on the
      throttle and a third hand to engage the starter.   :D

      You are right Matt.  I did not read your original post carefully enough.
      You wrote, "mounting one as a toggle switch sideways that can be pulled towards
      a guarded starter button. . . "
      I think that is the best solution instead of complicating the circuit with relays
      or electronic timers.  
      My 912ULS also requires 3 hands to start.  One hand pulls the choke, one hand turns
      the start key.  It starts within 2 seconds. 
      Then I have to push the choke in and lock it while simultaneously advancing the
      throttle.  It is not easy, but doable.
