Just ordering some diamond rearsets and they said they can supply rear brake switch thingymabobby. Looking online theres no options its just one thing. So are these exactly the same no matter what model/make your bike is?

It's actually just an empty box because we all know real men don't use the rear brake as the back our bike is in the air.

Probably just a universal banjo pressure switch one.

That's the one . Undo the original banjo bolt then replace it with the new part. Bleed brake and away you go

Oh, I've never seen one of those before (much older bikes in my house!). Clever bit of engineering.

I bought the Diamond rearsets for my GSX-R 750 and didn't need one as I could use the existing spring and switch (attached to brake cylinder).
