Title: Location of clutch switch question for UK 400/4
Post by: McCabe-Thiele (Ted) on November 12, 2021, 09:07:03 AM: Where is the actual switch located as I do not seem to have one - was it actually fitted to UK models I haven't spotted it on my strip down?

Wires connect in headlamp shell. If you cant find the correct clutch switch the front blake light switch from a trail bike is the same just different wire colours

Has a cheapo feel to it but it works OK.
