Never mind about the brake light...I found the right one on another thread in the forum.

@ Stuo
Do you know if the extra bright bulb can only be purchased online or is it a variant of a standard bulb that I could get from a regular Autoparts store?
thx

I Replaced the factory Maxxi rear tire with Shinko SR568.
3800miles on it, 1100 was me.
Not sure how many miles you're supposed to get on a scooter rear tire but lets see how many I get out of the Shinko since it was the lowest price.
Sure handles better.

@stuo - Thanks very much for the suggestion on the LED brake light, I'll research it and add it.
@CROSSBOLT - thx as well, glad to know what that plug is for...I'm not really one to take anything to a dealership unless it's a recall.
I bought a left and a right of Amazon for $8.
This is my first scooter and it might be my gateway drug to a motorcycle but I figured for $800usd (2700miles on the 2011 DT300) it has been fun to ride and learn something new.
BTW - love this forum

Downtown 300 / Front brake doesn't illuminate the brake light

Hi all,
I have a 2011 DT300 that I bought and have discovered that the brake light doesn't light up when I pull the front brake: back brake lights it up the way you would expect. So this is my first scooter and never owned a motorcycle but logic tells me the front brake should light up the brake light the same way the back brake does.
In changing the back tire and looking around under the seat I noticed a plug that wasn't plugged into anything. I took a picture of it and attached it.
The previous owner also had issues with the seat locking mechanism and has disabled it and replaced it with a yellow line to open the seat. I'm not sure if by disconnecting the electrical seat locking mechanism initiated from the key position has also disabled the front brake lighting up the brake light.
Any direction you might have would be fantastic.
thx
