I have an 1100 V-Star Classic, the brake lights
Check using the voltmeter if you are getting any output in the bulb holder? You might also need to check the wiring that connects the bulb holder to the main base wiring. Since the turn signals are working fine, there seem to be some problem with the wiring connector that connects the tail wiring with the main one. It might be loose or damaged. You might need to check the condition of the wire that connects the tail lamp to the holder as well.

They usually have yellow and brown wires
on them. The rear switch is near the rear
brake pedal and has a little spring on it.
Hold it and turn the nut anticlockwise
until the brake light goes out.
Make sure it comes on when you step
on the brake pedal.
If the brake light still stays on, check the
little switch near your front brake lever.
It also has yellow and brown wires.
It might be faulty. Try disconnecting the
wires connector and see if the brake light goes out.

What Exactly does the bike do when it 'loses power'? This will give clues as to where the issue could be. When was the last time the bike was given a major service? Sometimes it can be as simple as a dirty fuel/air filter or an old/worn or dirty spark plug.

- Fuel System Issues:
- Check the fuel system for clogs, such as a dirty fuel filter or carburetor jets.
- Ensure that the fuel tank and fuel lines are clean and free from debris.
- Consider adding a fuel system cleaner to help clean out any deposits.
- Ignition System Problems:
- Inspect the spark plugs for fouling, wear, or improper gap.
- Check the ignition timing to make sure it's set correctly.
- Inspect the ignition coils and wiring for any loose connections or damage.
- Air Intake and Exhaust Issues:
- Examine the air filter for clogs or dirt that may restrict airflow.
- Inspect the exhaust system for any leaks or blockages.
- Vacuum Leaks:
- Check for vacuum leaks in hoses, gaskets, or intake boots. A vacuum leak can cause an improper air-fuel mixture, leading to backfiring.
