If that switch was no good there wouldn't be any clicking or buzzing - there would be no starter action at all, the same as if you don't pull in the clutch when you go to start the bike. If you hear some clicking, I would vote against that. Your bike is only 2 years old and I doubt things like that fail so soon. You are going to take apart things that are not broken, and maybe somehow manage to break them. Look elsewhere, like the wiring first. You can also try to spray some contact cleaner (or even WD40 as a start) into the switch to see if you can clean it up, and into the starter switch as well. Work them back and forth a few times, then try it again. If it works, get some contact cleaner, WD40 will initially clean it, then maybe gum it up.
