Would anyone have a picture of the brake light switch original installation on a 74.5 250 HS they could post? The brake light switch I believe is P/N 1.31.11.050.100. Thanks in advance.
Derek, My bike is in storage but try this photo. http://web.tiscali.it/ktm70/ann74-76.htm
You can sort of make out the switch.
Here is a good photo. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1972-80-Penton-KTM-BRAKE-LIGHT-SWITCH-GS-Enduro-stop-light-brakelight-Six-Days-/270741691732?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3f09765d54&vxp=mtr
The switch for that bike lives behind the front edge of the right side cover where the number oval projects forward. The little hook hanger goes into a hole in the switch, and the switch mounts to a hole on a frame tab, as I recall. The wires run upwards from the switch. The plunger runs downward with a spring to the pedal as I recall. Your brake pedal should have a small hole that will align directly under the switch. I might go to my storage later today and if so will snap a pic for you. My 72 is totally different and the switch is on a swingarm tab near the brake backing plate. If you search this site you will find photos. Good luck! John
Thank you sir I see what needs done - greatly appreciated. That's a pretty cool Italian website.
