Default Brake light not working

The brake light will not come on when I hit the front or back brake.I checked my fuses, bulbs look good, wiring to bulbs are hooked up. Is there a relay that could have went bad?

Did you try adjusting the foot brake switch..... itsyncs pressure on the brake to activate the break light. 99% of the time, this is your problem...

check fuses and bulbs again.. happnd to me on my old bike.. i crashed it and the turn signal wires touched maybe a week after and everything went dead.. rear lights, brake lights, horn, dash lights.. everything
but if youre 110% sure that its not ur bulbs or fuse then yes you might be right

I just had the same problem with my brake light not working right, it was actually on the whole time. I was able to fix it by adjusting the foot brake switch like jeh2324 said. When you are looking behind the foot brake there is a thumb screw that you have to turn. I had to turn mine towards me to get the brake light to go off. Once that was adjusted right the light starting working properly. Good Luck.[/align]

I rechecked the fuses, replaced the bulbs, and tried to adjust the foot brake any other ideas.
