help please - adding a disk front end

[caspa2006]

hi i have converted my gp to disk brake and have put the master cycliner on
but it has a brake light switch,

here the question do i need to wire it in or just put a bolt in the hold and pretend
its a lever adjuster or something

[RICSPEED]

even if the swich was left on i dought the mot guy will pull you up on it ,wiring it in is not to hard though

simply run two wires down to your rear brake switch (one from each terminal)and plug them in.

mine went through the mot without the wire...no worries...

Its so easy to wire it in... And considering with a disc brake you'll never use your back brake again, its nice and safe!

As Sean says, just take two wires up from your rear brake switch

[sean brady scooters]

bare in mind,that if its not wired in...NO ONE behind you will know that your breaking..

this is potentially very dangerous imo.

I still primarily use the rear brake, a little dab going into corners etc... the front is for when I HAVE to stop, it gets used rarely, am I alone in this?

[sean brady scooters]

you may well be alone with this i think........
but i could be wrong ....

75% of your braking should be done with the front......so wire it up.

just dont want to hear of some 40 ton artick running up your chuff........

I do 99% of my braking with my first two finger on my hand!

Hard braking too - I squared off my front Scwalbe raceman before my rear! Anti-dive ROCKS!!!!!

Absolutely right, thats what I meant about "having to stop", otherwise I rarely brake other than a dab on the rear (propably overly defensive driving!). You are right though about wiring it up, I'll get my done tomorrow.
