    RD07a - kick stand switch lunacy

    Hi guys,

    I'm in the process of tidying the @ up - yes, I know I should be riding it but the crash bars were soooooo rusty I was embarrased to be seen out on it! So to cut a long story short - in a one in a million event a mash hammer I'd beeen using to impact driver out a brake disc bolt fell off the bin and landed on the subject switch lying on the floor under it completely, and I mean completly smashing it to bits!

    I've looked on e-blag and the only ones listed are for the earlier RD07 - the 2 bolts to the frame fitment, not the one bolt direct to the stand bolt fitment like I need.

    So question is - one guy on e-blag has some Varadaro ones in and reckons they might fit - anyone know if they do?

    Or failing that, anyone got a spare RD07a switch they want to sell me?.........

    Cheers dudes......

    Why bother in the short term? Complete the circuit and ride on and get a switch when one turns up????
    When I grow up ..... yeah right!

    Y'see, I could say "You can go fast, I can go anywhere, Africa Twin" But you buggers have 'em as well so it would sound pretty lame .... oops!
