Front brake switch

Post by SteveD »

The usual post 80 R100 has a 6x1 brake switch but a conversion from the 16mm master cylinder to a 14mm from a younger R100gs uses a 8x1 with a cable on it. It'd be easy to splice the switch onto the existing wiring but being cheap a spare in someones parts box would be great.

Anyone have one that they don't want?

I get "video not available".
I've spent most of my money on women, motorcycles, and beer.
The rest of it I just wasted.

It's trump's fault.

edit: it is FZ's City of Tiny Lights, where they speak, at the beginning, "I knew you'd be surprised!".
