Need Help - Rear Brake lever / Brake Light Switch Arrangement

[Gixer1460]

Hi All,

I'm getting hacked off trying to get the hydraulic brake light switches to work on my GSXR 1100 M so i'm reverting to 'normal OEM' stuff and losing a) my AP racing front lever assembly, replaced with alternative from stock with a proper mechanical switch and b) adding a traditional 'pull' switch to the rear! This is where I run into difficulties - I have a Harris Performance lever and rearset assembly and have no idea what the stock GSXR assembly looks like or where the spring sits / connects to between switch and footlever.

It feels like something is missing but without a standard bike to look at - i'm guessing. I've looked on the parts fisches and workshop manual but they are next to useless . . . . . so I would appreciate if someone could take some piccies of the standard footrest / lever / spring / light switch so I can see what's missing or what I need to fabricate to join A to B to C!

Muchos Grassy Arse in anticipation.

Thanks - its the thin U shaped bit that looks like a Z on both of those that I seem to be missing. I assume it connects to the lever on the other side of the plate?

Could be easier to use a banjo style hydraulic pressure switch with your setup? Less parts, cleaner look?
