Featured here is the factory DRZ400 cutch perch and the DRZ400 clutch switch. If you are going to use the factory DRZ400 perch and lever, or use the factory DRZ400 perch and an aftermarket lever, you'll need to remove this switch from the clutch perch. If you are replacing the factory DRZ400 cutch perch and lever with an aftermarket perch and lever, you don't need to worry about removing the clutch switch, simply jump down to the next step.
