83 KZ750N Rear brake switch, what models fit? was created by Kindyr
Title pretty much says it all. Got all the title work and insurance sorted, got the new battery on the charger and had freed up the rear brake pedal though copius amounts of penetrating oil and working the pedal back and forth. Had taken the panel the ppegs and pedal are mounted on to be sure I got it from both sides.
Putting the panel back on the bike, slide the switch into place and realized I needed to put the MC on first to make it easier. Tried to get the switch back out and it brake to pieces. Anybody know if this means the rear brake won't turn on the brake light, or it means the brake light will always be on?
Anyway, I started looking at Ebay, and no one had the exact model and make. I'm sure the switch from similar models will work, but the pictures of such a small peice are hard to be sure, and if they have the bracket,it's differant than on the 750N.
So, anybody know a part number for the brake switch, or a model that will for sure swap the switch?
Thanks!

Kawasaki.com will have the Cross info as to which models.
Patton has posted the process of going through the sequence to find the cross reference. Super easy, just go to "Owner Info" and the parts diagrams. Then when you find the part, click on the Yellow question mark, also the "S" for super session.
Of course the aftermarket has the replacement also, Z1 can help you there.
