Description

This switch kit is designed to control the rear brake light activation. When the rear brake pedal is pressed, the switch triggers the brake light to illuminate, providing a safety signal to other drivers that the rider is braking.

Key Features:
Material: Typically made from durable materials such as high-quality plastics, metals, and rubber seals to ensure long-lasting performance under the bike’s conditions.
OEM Quality: As an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) part, the HD72023-51E is designed to meet Harley-Davidson’s standards for performance and reliability. This ensures a perfect fit and proper function with your bike’s existing brake light system.
Designed for Rear Brake: This switch kit specifically activates the rear brake light, so it is positioned in a way that it only engages when the rear brake is applied, providing accurate signaling for braking.
Easy Installation: The kit typically comes with all necessary components for installation and can be easily integrated into the rear brake light system. The switch often includes wiring and connectors for a simple setup.

Functionality:
Brake Light Activation: The primary function of this switch is to activate the rear brake light when the rider presses the rear brake pedal. This serves as a warning to other drivers that the rider is slowing or stopping.
Safety Enhancement: By ensuring that the brake light is illuminated when the rear brake is applied, this switch improves visibility and safety on the road, especially in low-visibility conditions or when the rider is braking at slower speeds.
Consistent Signal: The switch ensures that the rear brake light remains operational, providing consistent signaling when the brake pedal is pressed.

Applications:
Harley-Davidson Touring Models: This kit is often used in various Harley-Davidson Touring models like the Electra Glide, Street Glide, and Ultra Limited.
Harley-Davidson Softail and Dyna Models: Some Softail and Dyna models with compatible rear brake systems might also be equipped with this switch kit.
Replacement or Upgrade: This kit can be used to replace a worn-out or malfunctioning rear brake light switch, restoring the functionality of the rear brake light on your bike.
