Good One
The earlier version of this part that had been on my Norton Commando became intermittent; this replacement worked as advertised.

2021+ ZX10 Owner? Read This Before Buying
Because this part is ‘universal’ application, I can’t blame Fortnine or Vortex for not mentioning this - using this switch (which is necessary for vortex rearsets) means you cannot use cruise control on your Gen 6 ZX10R; and likely any other bike that has cruise control. The factory switch has an additional circuit that detects if the brake is in the ‘off’ position, which will then allow you to active cruise control.
Got this switch wired up and functionally I have no complaints. It works great. But it would’ve been nice to know that I was giving up cruise control (until I find a solution) when I installed the vortex parts. No cruise control on your bike? 5 star part that’s definitely recommend, even if it’s just a peace of mind thing.

Works great
Didn't know this existed until I saw a link in a Facebook page. Got it for my ZX10R that has after market rear sets and no rear brake light. Well, now it does.

Previous switch failed and bought this one to repair. Work perfect and good design. The leads are shorter than my previous one but i could manage.

No more issues!
This product rectified my issue of having an aftermarket rear set adapter plate. Made it simple to have functioning brake lights.
Shipping was fast as usual. Love shopping on Canada's Motorcycle!

Questions
Will this work on a 2014 harley street bob?
We don't list specific bike fitments for this part, but we have the following fitment information:
10mm x 1.00 thread pitch fits most European applications
10mm x 1.25 thread pitch fits most Japanese applications
With that in mind, it would not fit your Harley.

There's two images, depending on the thread pitch. Does the M10 X 1.0 sensor really have the wires exposed like that off the sensor ?
Yes, it does. I used some shrink tubing and looped it back down on itself to make a strain relief on the wires. It doesn’t look the best but it hasn’t failed yet. 3 years installed now

Would this fit a 97 Kawasaki Vulcan 800??
Yes I this should work for your rear brake switch, I believe you want the 10mm x 1.25 coarse thread.
