brake question

I have a 91 springer that I am putting floor boards on and I was wondering if anyone knows, if I just need a tee at the brake sensor for the brake lights. Thanks

Not really sure on your stock set-up. My stock set-up with floorboards had the switch mounted in the rear in front of the swingarm pivot area.

If that is not the case with yours you can certainly add a tee for a switch, should be pretty straight forward.

Mine is right where yours is, I switched from forward controls to floor boards and i have to change my brake lines so I guess I just need a tee and connect the brake line and the sensor, right. Thanks

Used the stock set-up in the rear.
