Quick question regarding front brake adjustment brought on by -

Earlier today a biker who had been behind me from Wessington stopped next to me at traffic lights in Matlock & shouted over "When that car pulled out in front of you - you had no brake light"
so I guess it must be quite noticeable.

I have checked the brake and the light does come on - but only on the last bit of lever movement.
(I know I can get round this by always using the rear brake in conjunction - but I do not always do that)
I need it to come on earlier. I have put silicone spray on the lever to ensure everything is moving freely there.

So My question is - Is the point when the brake light operates adjustable? (as the rear brake is)
I have had a quick look in the manual and realise the switch is screwed into the hydraulics and am thinking the 'fix' is to install a new switch (part 43065 001)

Thanks for any info
Cheers Kevin

the only thing you can do is replace it as it works of hydraulic pressure or it could have an air lock in the splitter

Ok thats good
thanks

Cheers

Kev, my z1000a2 had the same issue this year. I put a new genuine switch in and it now seems a lot better.

Ok that's reassuring Scott - I think I'd best get my order in.
Hopefully installing the part should not present any issues
