Stop lamp

Good morning everybody,
 I am a recent member and after some advice please .
when applying my brakes I get a stop lamp light come up on clocks ? 
is this an easy fix very grateful for any pointers in the right direction!
Ive only had the bike a month and so far managed to change sump pan , oil filter and oil change and also replaced carb to airbox rubbers
Thanks in advance for any help
 

Does the stop light work? Is the bulb OK?

I’ll check if they work and get back to you,
sorry that should have been the first thing I checked!
 Thanks for getting back to me so quickly 
 

is the stop light an led?

Stop lamp is working on front and rear brake ,

 

Will come on with brake actuation, lets you know lamp is working, on all the time or flashing indicates lamp failure, works in tandem with low fuel indicator dimmer glow, electrical gizmo under seat, plugs into unit on right side of tank, if using led brake lamp, need resistor in parallel with lamp as unit is looking for lamp resistance

on my 1981 kz650-H1 csr. the brake stop lamp illuminates whenever the brakes are applied. this tells you the brake light is working. a safety feature to minimize getting rear ended. if the brake light bulb is defective, the brake stop lamp flashes. the om has a description of its functionality.

edit: same basic answer as jwfels. ha ha. 

Thanks ever so much for clarifying this at least it won’t be a shock when I see it come on in future.
As I’ve not been an owner very long I’m sure I’ll be on here again for advice sometime soon.
Very helpful and knowledgeable bunch on this forum should save me a fair amount of head scratching 👍

Hey Glockers1963 (and others),
The answers to many questions are model and year specific. One way to avoid constantly retyping that information is to put it in the signature line of your posts, that way it will always automatically appear in each of your posts. I just posted the instructions in the About the Site forum.
Happy KZ-ing.

P.S. There are quite a few factory service manuals and owner's manuals posted in the Filebase.

but it should be a shock if the stop lamp does not come on when braking. ha ha. this tells you something is amiss in the brake light circuit. stop lamp bulb. brake light switches. outage switch. ground. etc.
