Good morning DMFers, it's 0630 here in beautiful AZ. Got to work at 0600 and some co workers were nice enough to let me know that my rear tail light was out. It works when I apply the brakes, but is dark otherwise. I don't have my manual or anything with me and I'm hoping I can take care of this at lunch.
Does this sound like it's a burned out bulb or something else? I can't really get away to check at the moment so this sounds like a lazy help request, but I simply don't have the time to do it myself (bike is primary means of transport at the moment) and want to fix it ASAP. If it's a bulb does anyone know the type? 2006 S2R1000.
Thanks guys and gals, ride safe and keep it rubber side down Dolph

Edit: Snuck away from work and removed bulb. Info on the bulb is P215w which is apparently the european designation, american equivalent is 1157

Is the bulb visibly burned?  If not, check the connection at the back of the light.  Mine developed a tendency to disconnect of their own volition.
