Electrical Problem or Paranoia

I was tinkering with my NSR (no, not at 2:52 in the morning) Razz

, and I noticed that when the parking lights are on, only one of the two brake lights is lit. When i pull the lever in, they both light up, and when i let go, one of them goes off again.

Is this normal design or should i take the bike to the mechanics again? Confused

Well, whatever you call one notch down from "fully on" (not high-beam). Mine's a 2000 NSR125RY in NH-1D Razz

Pretty sure both light up on mine, dude. Reckon it needs looking at! Could just be a bulb though! Smile

Either its a common fault or its normal as my bro's nsr does the same. The 'side light' only lights up the left hand side of the back panel. I noticed it the other night when I was behind him. Thought he had a bulb out but now you say you have the same thing then it may be normal.

Even if it isn't normal it's not worth paying for someone to fix that.
