I'm on the hunt for a 9 way male mini connector for the left bar switch. Anyone any ideas or opinions about mixing metals between the male and female halves ?

I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it. -
If u are asking about different metals causing dissimilar corrosion, the only difference in the connectors would typically be brass or tin plated brass. Would there be a problem? Probably not, however, you are safer putting a corrosion preventative on both connector pins as preventative maintenance. I use ACF50 on all my connectors to do exactly that.1978 Gs1085 compliments of Popy Yosh, Bandit 1200 wheels and front end, VM33 Smoothbores, Yosh exhaust, braced frame, ported polished head :cool:

Sorted. The original male connector was still there tucked under the coils. PO must have butchered the tails on the switch he fitted and the one he took off but at opposite ends. The bullet connectors two feet from the switch threw me. I assumed the plug was gone.
Thanks for the link and heads up on the ACF5097 R1100R
