    Where does this go?

    The previous owner took it upon himself to disconnect most of the lights and muff up the wiring. I have the wiring diagram, and for the life of me I cannot figure out where the below part gets attached.



    It's part of the main harness which is taped together surprisingly well and I'd rather not cut it apart to trace it. Any ideas? I bought an aftermarket front master cylinder that has 2 male ends for the electrical connection for the brake light, wondering maybe if the original somehow connected to this...


    As always, thanks!

    It's the front brake light switch and it goes under the front lever.

    Don't say can't, as anything is possible with time and effort, but, if you don't have time things get tougher and require more effort.

      Hey. It looks like the front brake light switch. Attaches to the front brake lever, just under it...

      Check out Bikecliffs link below... Looks a heck of a lot like the switch I cleaned up on my lever...

        These guys are right, but there are two of them. One for the front brake that controls the brake light on/off and another one for the clutch, can't start the bike without the clutch being in. You can tell which it's for by the colour of the wires. The other parts that belong to both those switches is a small plastic piece the screws into the underside of either handle, inside that is a verryyyy small spring and another plastic piece that that verryyyy small spring fits into. Hope you have them.

          Dang. I had to replace the original master cylinder/lever. I bought a replacement from Parts N More but it has wires rather than place to screw this in. I'm guessing I can splice it right in, but we'll see...
