Okay... 07 Fatboy. Replaced front grips, switch buttons with chrome buttons, chrome levers, and a chrome front master cylinder cover. The brake light now stays on full time.

Bled the front brake but the light still stays on.
I have a suspicion that the brake switch in the housing is somehow being triggered, but not sure why.
