Hey guys,

Also whos up for housing me in the seattle area....me and davipu might be coming up (just nod your head davipu).

:)

It is the front brake lever switch, it makes the click sound when you pull on the lever.  Held on by one screw underneath the lever.  Check the wiring that connects to it, and check that the switch clicks.  I ended up replacing mine, when it was doing something similar.

Well, I can't house you...  But, I'll hang out. :thumb:

And...  Yeah...  Check your switch.  It's probably bad or loose.
