What should the Kill Switch reading be on a Harley Davidson?

What should the current be on a Harley Davidson starter?
In addition to the starter current draw test, you can measure the voltage at the wire connected to the starter solenoid from the ignition switch. With the ignition in the on/run position and the button pressed, 12 volts should be present at this wire.

If that test was a “pass”, it would eliminate with 100% certainty, the starter and starter solenoid from the picture and all the associated wiring, all the way back to the fuse box. It would demonstrate that all the heavy starter grounds were OK also. Passing just that one simple test would eliminate a dozen possible items it could have been.
What’s the voltage on a Harley Davidson starter?
I check the voltage at the kill switch and get 12.3 from the black and white wire that goes to the kill switch and the start button. But, I only get 9.2 volts from the black and red wire from the start switch to the start relay. All the fuses are good and there are 12 volts to the starter and the solenoid.
