As all CB-1 owners will know, after time the handlebar switches fade and look pretty *Censored*e.I managed to pick up a set from a CB500 cheap the other day. They look a lot better than the original ones and have exactly the same controls including the choke and a natty "pass" switch. I havn't got round to fitting them so far so I've yet to find out how different the connecters are. Has anyone else found good replacement ones?
Yep. Replaced mine with CBR600 switchgear (I think) and it looks ace - pretty much the same as the ones in your pics actually. It was a while ago now so I can't remember which model it was but now all my lights turn on and off properly (mine was US spec so the lights wouldn't turn off and there was no pilot in the headlight). It took a bit of tweaking to get it all installed but it wasn't difficult.
Aye, i was looking out for a good set of 600 switches, and Hornet ones but they tend to go for up to £60 for a good set, these were just over £10.I'm going to need to sort out funds for a respray soon so every pound saved helps.
