Default tail light out =[

Can't figure out why the tail light isn't working. Break lights come on fine. Checked the fuse....the tail light bulb is the same for the break light, right? Or am I wrong?

I don't know if this is true on the bike or not, but some light bulbs are double filament bulbs and one of the filaments can break while the other works. So if your break light is the lower filament, the upper filament might have broken.
