I was installing new rearsets, and the rear brake pressure sensor broke. I am thinking this is only for the brake light (I do not have ABS) is this correct? and I was planning on riding the bike until a new one came in, but I wanted to ask and make sure I was in the right mindset. The bike is safe and I will loose no performance other than a brake light when braking with my rear brake (which doesn't bother me, when I stop in traffic I use the front).

Thanks for your input!
Ride safe!

Do you mean the brake light switch?

A photo of the item you're referencing would help.

OK...it appears Ducati has gone to a hydraulic pressure switch, as opposed to a mechanical unit.

You should be fine.

It's mechanical and it only affects the brake light.

You can ride without  [thumbsup]

Thanks! I was thinking so, but this is the first time I've torn into it and wanted to be sure. Never can be too careful.

Thanks again!

Leave it to the Italians to butcher language. :P

It's a very crude pressure sensor.  ;D
