Is this your front brake light switch?

If so couldn't you fit one off something else or explain the situation to the MOT tester & promise to use the back brake as well?

I got my MOT today!

Strangely enough as soon as I rode off the speedo stopped working as did the clutch reservoir and the headlight started dipping the wrong way and a set of termi's suddenly appeared on the end of the exhaust pipes.

The worst bit was riding through rush hour traffic with no clutch whatsoever. When I did have to stop it was a case of run alongside and push it as fast as I could, jump on and start the motor and bang it into first and blast off before it stalled again.... In leathers and in this heat. I nearly had a heart attack and must have lost gallons of sweat into my leathers.

I' have a go at sorting it tonight. Best worse case scenario will involve bringing a few pints of clutch fluid and a bleeding kit with me and bleeding as required on Sat. Worst case scenario will involve coming the VERY long way round via motorway and doing the rest of the journey as above.

Oh how I LOVE my ducati!
