paso 750 brake light switches
Need to buy a front brake light switch (mine's missing) as well as a rear brake light switch (takes a lot of foot pressure to operate). Please let me know if you have any for sale or where I can source them here in the US if possible. Since this is a safety issue, I'm anxious to install them. I would prefer original, but if I cannot find them, then, ANY replacements will do, including slight modifications.
I cannot ride without brake lights and the weather in Colorado is just right!!
I look forward to any and offers or advice.
TIA
Ric

Re: paso 750 brake light switches
hi Ric,
on the 907 (yours might be the same, brembo unit) the front switch is a common microswitch any electronic shop will have one, its held on by two small bolts/screws, remove old switch and match it with new, some new microswitches have 3 terminals, cut one terminal off and 'Bob's your uncle!'
didn't realize your switch is missing, I have one right here...I can take a photo and send it
cant help you with the rear switch

or did your ask your local Duc dealer for availability of those part numbers ?
The rear 079654114 is still available. You can also use universal switches like
http://www.ebay.com/itm/MOTORCYCLE-HYDR ... 06&vxp=mtr
This are NOS front brake light switches (but quite honestly the used one on my bike looks better )
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Brembo-OEM-brak ... db&vxp=mtr
The brake light switches have a M10x1.0 thread btw.
Oh, please do add your location in your profile.

Re: paso 750 brake light switches
a microswitch as Claude suggests is even better (#53940041a)

Re: paso 750 brake light switches
Claude, the 907ie had the microswitch on the brake master pump (which can be fitted also on the 750/906). The 750/906 originally came with a pressure switch instead which sits in the brake line distributer that`s mounted to the lower triple clamp.
Re: paso 750 brake light switches
thank you all,
Claude,
yes, if it isn't too much trouble, could you take a couple of close up pics. Mine is completely gone. I have a feeling that whoever installed the Mikunis had to redo the throttle and setup and may have lost/destroyed/misplaced the switch.
again, many thanks to all.

Re: paso 750 brake light switches
this is what the old switch looks like, and the 3 terminal replacement, (just blank or cut the spare terminal)
if you have problems finding one I can send you this one...(but look first )

I agree the microswitch might be a better/simpler solutionpaso750 wrote:Claude, the 907ie had the microswitch on the brake master pump (which can be fitted also on the 750/906).

Re: paso 750 brake light switches
I have no clue what they normally cost so there may be cheaper ones than this

Re: paso 750 brake light switches
I lost the brake junction when I went braided on the brake lines so put a microswitch on the 906. Simple switch over

Re: paso 750 brake light switches
they're about 3 bucks at Jaycar electronics (minus the small bolts)paso750 wrote:I have no clue what they normally cost so there may be cheaper ones than this

but I imagine you can get them from any electronic shop (a lot cheaper than a bike shop)
