Found: 1 Front Brake Switch

So I was talking to Dennis Jorgensen today at the gym after he offered me to take a ride on his new Kawasaki bullet bike, and decided that I'd see how much they would charge me for the parts. I went into the store this afternoon and started talking to the parts guy. He was able to get me the switch for under 20 bucks with tax. I went with it because that was the best price I could find online as well.

He looked up the rebuild kit for the master cylinder and it was 50 something. I told him that I was waiting for an after market one for $20. He then said that he could sell it for $40 and if I changed my mind about waiting for the after market parts he would still honor that price. Not bad, but I'm holding out for partsnmore. I'll likely order new clutch plates at the same time.

Got the switch on the bike and it works like a champ. No more pilfering from bleubells to pass inspections.
