Default 04 500 ho

I just noticed tonight that the brake light only comes on when using the hand brake.Should the light come on when using the footbrake?
Also when it warmed up and idleing the rpm will drop 100rpm or so then back up to normal then down again then up then down.Any ideas? I tried adjusting the idle screw which increases the rpm but it will still do the same.
Thanks Rich

The brake light operates from the hand brake only, the foot brake is a separate system which operates the back brake. As for your oscillating idle I would look at the routing of the throttle cable, sometimes when turning the bars if not routed correctly it can pull on the cable.
