Yamaha XJ650 Part 34 Brakes and rear lights

The front brakes are all done and the rear brake light has now been tested. Just a bit more tidying up to do before my first test ride!

Thanks mate

All the fiddly bits kill me... Keep pushing forward bit by bit... Great work. 👍

[@jeremyubrien2955]

Great job. Can’t wait to see the finished product. Where do you buy all of the Genuine Yamaha parts from?

[@Mezzmoengineering]

Thanks Jeremy, some parts I purchased from my local Yamaha Dealer, some things available in Australia and others had to be shipped from Japan. Items not available I eventually found online, Ebay or other sites. Can be expensive but pretty much everything is out there somewhere. You just need to make the time to find it....

[@jeremyubrien2955]

Great. It’s not just me then. I am doing an xj750 and I guess the age of the bike means it’s just hard to find the bits at the right price and there are plenary of non genuine bits that pop up in the searches. Cheers

[@Mezzmoengineering]

@@jeremyubrien2955 Yep, parts are hard to find, definitely not just you. In some cases NOS is over priced but seems there is no choice....

[@Samseeker74]

Where did you get the oem master cylinder from
I have a XJ 750 I need one for

[@Mezzmoengineering]

I found it on ebay from a private seller

[@hieut5064]

did you have to wire in LED's for the swap?

[@Mezzmoengineering]

I completely started over with the wiring using Motogadget M unit. The LED's just plugged straight in...

[@drewholmans6035]

What all parts did you use for your build, do you have a list and cost

[@Mezzmoengineering]

I don't have a list, guessing this project cost around $10K in parts inc bike
