• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Rear brake light

Hello members
I have a 2011 630 TE and I noticed that the brake light doesn't come on when brake is depressed, front or rear brake. To me it seems like the brake light is always on, it is very bright. What would be a good place to start to look at.

Thanks for any help.

Discard this post, I found it was a loose micro switch on the front brake lever! Man this is an awesome forum for information
 
Yeah, the 630 brake light is very bright just with the running light, and the brake light is ridiculous compared to most dual sports / motards.

(And is there such a thing as a FRONT brake light?) :p
 
I always thought grade 6 is all i needed for life**************************************** He He!
 
Seems I have the same problem. Brake light is always on. But could not find any microswitch at the brake lever. However, I disconnected the front sending unit and the light was still always on. The sensor from th rear brake seems to sit right on top of the brembo brake piston. Maybe that is the culprit. If so - how can that be disconnected? Or are there any other potential sources that could cause this?
 
Been a few years with no action on this thread, but I'll try. I just noticed my 2011 630 rear brake light appears to be always on (judging by brightness), or never off (if there is more on tap). Anyone learn anythng about this? Bike is low mileage (4K now). Wasn't sold new until 2014, then sat mostly until I bought it in 2018 or 19 with 600 miles on it.
