The bike got to the dealer from the factory mid-November. It was ordered in mid-October. I haven't actually taken delivery yet....will be getting it tomorrow.

Then don't take delivery until you confirm that the new model switch is installed AND remember to ask them if they bled the rear brakes. If they say they didn't, then they did not follow procedures and, at your potential expense, took a shortcut to make more money from the MOCO by spending less time on your recall. Ride it around in their parking lot to determine if your rear brake pedal travel and action is "reasonable". If it is mushy, take the damn thing back and raise a little hell with someone....in a nice and, of course, uplifting manner!
