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  waytogo

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!

It's a very crude pressure sensor.  Grin
