Hey there peeps was just wondering if anyone would know of and how to solve my problem. My rear brake works fine in terms of its functions to get me to slow down/stop, but the light doesn't go on unless i press down hard on it using a lot of force.

Additional info
in my last of back in feb the rear brake lever was bent in and then was put back to its original place to

cheers fitzy

Not sure if they're still the same as the earlier models but probably just need to adjust your brake light switch, should be a little black thingo with a spring connected to the lever, just turn it up till light comes on when you want it to.

there is a switch on a threaded flat attached to the pedal, about 150mm back from the furthest forward part of the pedal. It pulls down to come on, so screw it up.

thanks for that turns out after the off i had in feb the black thing with the thread on it somehow went down. After some fidgeting i ended up getting it to the correct level so happy now that the rear brake light works thanks for the help :kuda:
