I know I'm trying to run before I can walk and I haven't even purchased a new FJR yet. But I was wondering if there is a brake/clutch reservoir switch available for the FJR. Similar to the one I have on my old ST.



 
A bit out of topic..I see many as you there in US,where you have install two GPS.

I am very curious why??

Mihalis, I believe that one GPS serves as a detailed closeup view and the other as a more distanced extended view...and there maybe other reasons as well.

I'm only a novice rally rider but the main purpose was as a back up device.I also used the older 450 to display avg mph and other trip data as required.

Bill,

Not reservoir mounted, but I'm in the process of installing these to control my aux. lights:

Switches are both on/off but they (Highway Dirt Bikes) offer momentary options too. They don't sit perfectly straight on the Clutch side due to the bolts on the clutch reservoir being offset but they seem workable in their current position.

 
I like the option from highwaydirtbikes, and I almost bought one but they are not cheap and I made my own bracket that fixes to the clutch cylinder. It really took very little time. Two waterproof switches were cheap and they control both sets of Aux. Lights:

I remember looking at the PMR switches and think I decided they wouldn't fit because the bolts for the clutch mount bracker are not inline but offset a little.

 
You could just make your own with a small project box from Radio Shack. it comes with both a plastic and metal "cover" and the metal one is recessed a little and fits perfectly over the reservoir cover. Heavy duty velcro keeps it secure. Mine has a momentary switch for my garage door opener and the LED switch for my aux. lights.
