Yamaha TRX850 Enthusiasts Forum

Can anyone tell me the size and thread of the rear brake banjobolt, as I want to fit a hydraulic brake light switch and want to order the correct part without stipping / bleeding the rear brake

Cheers

Yamaha generically use M10 X 1.25, although saying that the rear master cylinder on a TRX is a Brembo and they tend to be M10 X 1.00.
They also seem to need a special `short` version for Brembo`s too:

I`m sure another member will be along to confirm the right thread pitch.
All those I`ve seen marketed for Yamaha, Honda and Kawasaki are M10 X 1.25, so I`ll be interested to know for sure myself.

Pretty sure its M10 x 1.25 ie nothing special or unusual.

You'll still have to strip / drain / bleed the brakes to fit the new bolt.

thanks guys just took banjo off it is indeed M10 X1.25, brakes were ok after few pumps - result. Have now ordered banjo + cable niples to do that FCR 41 changeover

Result indeed!
Oh and if you`re wanting a hand with nipples I`m your man.
