Re: Pitster light kit on my crf50

I think this is what I'm looking for: *FRONT BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH WILL FIT MOST MODELS (206A)

I'll need to drill a hole into my existing brake lever though, but I'm not sure if the light will work the correct way? Anyone know if the rear brake mounted switch lights have the same ON and OFF pattern as the one I linked above?

Re: Pitster light kit on my crf50

Would an oldschool Z50 or CT70 front brake cable with the switch built in to the cable work?

Sam and I were talking about that last night. We think it would. The reason I can't go that route is because the throttle assembly is already pretty wide by itself so I can't fit another thick switch on my bars.

Re: Pitster light kit on my crf50

on my crf230 street legal bike what i did was use the stock clutch swith that is a sefety for the electric start and rewire it for the brake light. if i were you and running a clutch on your bike order an oem 2004 crf230 perch with micro switch and either run it so when the clutch is oulled it lights or mount it on the opposite side and use it as your front brake lever etc....

Interesting idea, my pitster clutch control module does have that switch thing.
