Thank you again, kylerhsm, for getting the ball rolling on this! Awesome, thanks for including the additional information for others. In summary, it's easier to just use the MT03 switch if you can get a hold of one, but otherwise the R3 switch isn't too difficult to rig up if you can do some basic soldering. I really liked your idea of soldering the pink/black and pulling it through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toei Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 I ordered a MT03 switch from Japan to install on my XSR700. I didn't realize how much deeper (below the bar) the housing for this switch is. I've installed a lower/narrower bar on my XSR that I love, but it won't work with this switch due to tank interference (can tell by just looking at it). PM me if anyone is interested in purchasing a brand new MT03 switch (Part # B04-H3972-00). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rushdewalt Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 (edited) I finally got around to installing the MT-03 switch and it really is a worth while upgrade. No more pressing the horn by accident. Its just has a much better switch arrangement. One thing I have noticed though is that now I can operate the turn signals without the key in the ignition. I don't know if it did that before the swap or not. I double checked the pins and every thing looks correct. All the switches work as they should. I was just wondering if anybody else has experienced this. Update: Ok, I must have had a brain fart. I had the key turned to the parking mode.

EZrider Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 First off, thank you kylerhsm for this great OP! Although Fz07 is my first bike, I did try 6 other bikes since (and still prefer out FZ ) but imho , our beloved 07 has the worst left switch disposition of all the other bikes I've tried up to now and that mod (left switch upgrade) has since been in the back of my mind, but nothing more. Now thanks to you, it's whthin grasp with all your detailed infos and now on my top 3 next "to do" mod list! Winter is long here, so I now know what I'll do with that spare time Just one quick question for those who went with the MT03 switch, does it have a tactile feedback (a "click") for the flasher's switch ? Tried a few bikes like that and loved it since you're a 100% sure that you turned on/off the flashers without ever having to look on the dashboard at all, as opposed to our FZ It did happen on some very few occasions thinking I turned it off and/or flashed and it actually didn't. To some might seem like a small detail, but to me it's a security hazard that could potentially have heavy consequences, for example having the left turn signal still on (while thinking it's off) and crossing an intersection, where a car on the opposite lane wants to turn left, sees my flasher thinking I'm also turning left on my side, and... ... It didn't happen, and I wanna keep it this way, hence the "clicker" feedback I would like to have on the flasher's switch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it has a very nice click to it. It's so easy to operate the flashers without looking and you know exactly when you've turned them off so you don't have to check at all. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stickshift Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 (edited) Looks like it should be cheaper for US 07 owners to get the MT03 switchgear from next year: The Yamaha MT-03 Finally Comes to the USA as a 2020 Model - Asphalt & Rubber Yamaha’s pint-sized naked bike is finally coming to the United States, along with a new face. Say hello to the 2020 Yamaha MT-03. Edited October 2, 2019 by stickshift Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kylerhsm Posted October 2, 2019 Author Share Posted October 2, 2019 Three months on and this is still one of the best little mods I've done to the bike. If you're going to keep your MT/FZ07 for a while, I HIGHLY recommend it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_jdirty Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 Thank you for posting this. I will more than likely do this in the near future after scuffing up my left switch when i low sided awhile back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Global Moderator mjh937 Posted October 9, 2019 Global Moderator Share Posted October 9, 2019 I just looked at an R3 at the dealership and the left switch pod was almost the same as ours (no blank, but the horn button was in the same place). I will be curious what the MT-03 switches look like for the US market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Global Moderator sorkyah Posted October 9, 2019 Global Moderator Share Posted October 9, 2019 If you have the key in the lock position they won't but in the acc position they will ATGATT... ATTATT, two acronyms I live by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scat2me Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 (edited) When I lock the fork and remove the key the turn signals stay blinking unless I turn them off. I always thought this was a design flaw. I found out the hard way. Edited October 9, 2019 by scat2me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robbo10 Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 Mine is a 2014. It has a lock poition which is one position from "all the way". If yours is the same, 'all the way' is into 'parking lights' position. Any help? Just do it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scat2me Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 Looks like this part B9T-H3972-00-00 is now available in the States. Babbits has it but they want $20.00 for shipping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Global Moderator mjh937 Posted February 4, 2020 Global Moderator Share Posted February 4, 2020 I wish I had thought to look at the motorcycle show where I saw the MT-03, but from photos online it looks like the North American model has the same switch placement as we do. I did notice the R3 has changed to the same as us. If you are looking for the horn to be in a different location this might not be the correct part.

scat2me Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 (edited) The part number is different. I looked at Images on Google and it looks like the horn button is on the lower left. Edited February 4, 2020 by scat2me mistake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
