The failure mode for the ignition pickup is that it stops working when it gets hot and usually takes 15 - 30 minutes to cool down and start working again.

If your bike is starting up instantly after switching to reserve and continues to run without further shutdowns, then it's not the ignition pickup.

It still comes back to the petcock.

After the bike stalls on the "main position"...it starts up right away on the reserve position. It will run until out of gas on the reserve position.
