My 2011 700 front brake lever does not return all the way out to disengage the brake light. It fails to return to the full outward position by a mere fraction of an inch. I can simply fip my pinky to complete the levers outward travel for the light to go off.

Problem is, riders behind me cant see me brake at night when the light stays lit, and dont want to get rear ended.

Bike has only 1000 miles on her. Im thinking either the spring in the master has weakened or a seal gets wedged right before fully disengaged. Will do a master cylinder rebuild, but wanted to see if anyone thought something else may be at play to cause it.

Cheers mates !
