The builders have finally fecked off and left me with a shiny new garage for the Falco and associated bits to live. So I went off to get the bike from storage and all seemed well as she fired first time then I noticed the front brake light wasn't working.....all looked fine, anyone got any ideas? and of course she's due an MOT next week.....

It's the headlight. Try using the 3 stage switch instead..

All joking aside,


The switch on the front brake lever assembly works by making contact when the plunger comes out rather than when it's pressed in, doesnt it? Sounds like it's sticking in and not coming out, or the contacts therein are corroded up from being sat?

Yup sounds like what happened to mine, no amount of WD-40 would free the bugger up ended up needing a new one :(
