A CNC-machined switch for custom electrical systems

Are you looking for a discreet switch that doesn't detract from the clean lines of your café racer, scrambler, or tracker? The mo.switch plain precisely meets this requirement. Its housing, CNC machined from billet aluminum, is available in anodized gloss black or highly polished finishes, to match perfectly with either a matte black base or polished or chrome elements.

Its compact size allows multiple units to be installed on the same handlebar without cluttering it, an ideal solution for custom builds that centralize several electrical functions in a confined space.

Each unit is equipped with 2 or 3 push-buttons, available in black or stainless steel finish, to match or contrast freely with the housing depending on the desired aesthetic. Motogadget buttons are known for their robustness: generously sized, they offer an ergonomic pressure point with a slight perceptible mechanical travel, ensuring clear tactile feedback even with gloves. You instantly know that the action has been registered, without needing to visually check each command.

Waterproof and protected against water splashes and vibrations (IP65 rating), they are designed for road use and for builds most exposed to the elements.

Handlebar compatibility: 22.2 mm (7/8") and 25.4 mm (1")

The mo.switch plain adapts to almost all motorcycle handlebars on the market thanks to its two available internal diameters, 22.2 mm and 25.4 mm. Fastening is done by direct clamping to the tube using M5 stainless steel countersunk screws, which are completely invisible once mounted: two screws for 2-button units, and only one screw for 3-button versions.

This fastening system ensures stable and durable support, without play or unwanted vibration, while preserving the clean aesthetic characteristic of Motogadget switches.

Simplified installation and wiring

Each button has two connections, allowing either single-wire or two-wire wiring depending on the electronic control unit used. A ground connection is already integrated internally to facilitate single-wire mounting, which significantly simplifies cable routing inside the handlebars, a common constraint on custom handlebars or narrow bars.

The mo.switch plain is naturally compatible with all common Motogadget electronic control units, starting with the mo.unit.

Another advantage designed for the durability of your installation: in case of wear or impact, each push-button can be replaced individually, without needing to change the entire switch.

Frequently asked questions about the Motogadget mo.switch

Does the mo.switch plain work without an electronic control unit?

No. The mo.switch housing only groups the push-buttons. To activate your electrical functions (lighting, turn signals, starter, horn), it must be paired with a compatible electronic control unit, not supplied with this product. The Motogadget mo.unit is a common example, but the mo.switch remains compatible with all common electronic control units on the market.

Can several mo.switches be installed on the same handlebar?

Yes, this is precisely one of the advantages of this switch. Its compact housing allows two or more units to be mounted on the same handlebar, a common configuration on custom builds that centralize multiple controls on the right and left sides.

What if a button is damaged?

Each push-button is available separately and can be replaced individually, without having to change the entire switch.

What is the difference between the black and silver finishes?

The housing is available in anodized gloss black aluminum or highly polished aluminum. The buttons, available in black or stainless steel, can be matched or contrasted freely with the housing color depending on the desired aesthetic result.
