Lights

Brake Lights

When the brake pedal is depressed, the brake light comes on. Check the
brake light before each ride.

1. Turn the ignition switch to the LIGHTS ON position.

2. Apply the brakes. The brake light should come on after about 10

mm (0.4 in.) of pedal travel. If the light doesn't come on, check the
bulb.
