Thanks for the note, I had done that but found letting the caliper loose 
let me do the install with ease.  With the wheel in the air it seems there 
is a tiny bit of play left, but I'd feel better with a little more so 
looking for re-routing suggests...

Let me know how you do, as noted I'm bumping into that too.  I loosened 
the throttle sleeve mount a little which let me get closer to the switch 
housing and rotated a little to minimize the interferance but it's still 
there.

Gonna take it for a spin in a few to see how things are.
