“I was on a country road going into a corner. I hit the rear brake to find I did not have any rear brakes. After the accident when I got the bike home and had time to inspect it I found that the rear brake light switch had blow out causing the back brakes to fail. I called harley customer service and did not get any answers or even a phone back after I told them that they may have a problem on this model. I then called my dealer. They are trying to help but are not sure what they can do either. The end result is this, I have the serviced on a regular basis. …”
