Front brake switch on 1987 and later models does also contain the cancel switch for the cruise control built into the same plastic housing as one unit with 2 plastic push probes on the front and 4 electrical terminals on the rear of the switch housing.
It is illustrated on the Front Master Cylinder parts diagram.
Apparently this switch is still a stocking item from Kawasaki, or any of the online part suppliers.

I had a lot of trouble finding the correct switch for Gertrude. Then I discovered a hole in the bottom of the switch that's just perfect for squirting contact cleaner into. Voila, switch works again. I like free fixes.
