would you be able to use a full vespa front brake cable with the inline brake switch
and then run two wires down to your rear brake peddle,would it fit inside the head set
of the lammy.or is there another way around it.

Thanks Paul.

You only need the switch,Beedspeed do them ,and use your existing brake cable. It would be easier to fit it inside the horn stem then make a slit in the loom sheaf and tap into a lighting power wire to feed the switch.You will only need to run 1 wire down to join in to the rear switch "out" wire.The only problem with these switches is that they make the cable feel spongy and the cable can't be adjusted too tight or the switch will be on.

I have had one on my series 1 for 9 months, I can not feel any spongy feel or any other problems and as I seem to be always using the front brake, its a must have for me, of course the disk on my other scoot uses a micro switch on the master cylinder
