GT750 gear indicator switch removal.
My gear indicator switch assembly is old, hard, cracked and leaking oil. I have no interest in keeping it and would be fine just to remove it. I vaguely recall reading that it can be removed and a cover from another model suzuki works great as a block off plate on the case. Does this ring a bell to anyone? Does anyone remember what model this might of been?

Re: GT750 gear indicator switch removal.
I have no idea, but I have a spare indicator switch if interested.
I was born with nothing and still have most of it left.

Re: GT750 gear indicator switch removal.
It's been a while since I compared early versus late shift cams, but IIRC the older ones with just a neutral switch had a shorter nose on the cam.
I don't know of a blanking plate but it would be possible to have one machined I guess - or buy the switch from Coyote and consider it done.
