Right hand switch gear

(1/2) > >>

Mitchv60:
I'm trying to find a way of keeping the original ally right hand switch gear rather than change it for a plastic one.

The problem is I'm missing the front plastic knob and the top rotary dial is in terrible state.
Although the top is seized I should be able to free that once it's off the bars.
Is there any sources you know of that can help me out with a repair or spares?
I see on ebay theres loads of plastic ones that look the same but or for small cc models,I was wondering how interchangable they where or even if I could strip a new one for spare.

Bryanj:
Depends on what exactly your switch does as the official UK one is different to the rest of the world. Can you post a picture or desribe exactly what markings are on the light switch

Mitchv60:
Hope this helps.

That looks identical to the one on my CB750F1, which is also the same as the CB400F, they are still available from DSS and a few dealers on E-Bay, around £45-60 new, but there are many used one around too ;D

Bryanj:
That is off a US import 500 K0/1 and i have a few of those to rebuild, in fact just bought a brand new 125 switch as the top half is identical. PM me after the holidays and i will send you a phone number
