Woodcraft rearset installation


I'm installing new Woodcraft rear sets on my 06 GSX-R750 and have a couple extra parts to deal with on the brake side. Two springs and a brake light switch. One spring used to attach to a peg on the OEM rearset and then to the brake light switch and the other spring was probably for brake pedal return. Do I discard the return spring and is there anything I can do to get my brake light switch functional?

The springs are trash. I suppose you could figure something out for the pedal return spring but its probably not worth the time. As far as getting your brake light working, you can buy a pressure sensitive banjo bolt. basically its a banjo bolt with wire coming off it that you plug into your wiring harness connection. hopefully someone will post a link for you. its out there.

I have been running the woodcraft set-up for a while now on my SV. No troubles with the non-existant return spring and the pressure sensitive brake light switch works perfectly.
