hi all

any one have the issue, where the rear light doesnt work, but the brake lever will make the light come on but the foot brake wont make it come on...? the head light comes on as does the light for the speedo...

not sure where to start as the bulb is good.. unless its a connection problem...or is there a separate fuse for the lights / brakes? not got a workshop manual to hand so couldn't check...

cheers

check the rear brake switch, might just need a squirt of wd40 or such gt185. check connections by undoing and reconnecting
