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

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

This are NOS front brake light switches (but quite honestly the used one on my bike looks better

)

The brake light switches have a M10x1.0 thread btw.
Oh, please do add your location in your profile.

a microswitch as Claude suggests is even better (#53940041a)

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.

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.

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 solution

I have no clue what they normally cost so there may be cheaper ones than this

I lost the brake junction when I went braided on the brake lines so put a microswitch on the 906. Simple switch over

they're about 3 bucks at Jaycar electronics

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