Don't forget to make sure all your lights are working!

So Thursday, my spidey sense told me something was wrong.

When I returned home, I discovered my front brake didn't activate the brake light, and the rear pedal required me to stand on it to activate the light.

Took it to the shop. Turns out the front brake switch was no longer functioning. The rear brake pedal also needed adjusting so that it had the proper amount of travel to ensure that the rear brake triggered my brake light.

Luckily I didn't need to wait for parts - there was another red stella there that had the same front brake issue, and so they had a bunch of replacements on hand.

I've had the dealer replace both the hand and foot switches under warranty...

also, my headlight switch often gets stuck in the middle so that neither high nor low are on...

and every now and then I have to smack a cowl to get the blinker to work because I wasn't super careful putting it back on...
