Looks like it's called Front master cyl.cradle.

Is that it guys?

I ordered the back one which was called brake switch. Not sure if this is the same thing. The guys don't answer the damn phone so I'm ordering on line.

Thanks.

Thanks Keith yep you're right Smile

Thought it would be on the Handle.

My front brake works but the lights doesn't show up unelss I press it hard.

The mechanic said this should be the problem. Any ideas if there's anything else I need to order?

I thought possibly it was worn at the handle, but I guess not. Ordered the left on his advice, but now skeptical on the front. He didn't look at the switch I assume because he didn't take the bike aprt.

Hi

Would make sense for it to be on the bars with the rest of the front brake stuff.

Can't remember on the RS how the switch sits. But I would be tempted to clean things up first. Check if there is a ball bearing between the lever and the switch and if so check this is free to move. Job for WD40 or the like.

All the best

Keith
