youll need a hydraulic brake light switch, I use a K&S with my Vortex rearsets, heres a link to the switch I used. it simply replaces the banjo bolt in the rear master cylinder, wire it up and your good to go.

I run without it. I never use the rear brake alone except when trail braking in the canyons and don't really need for there. Looks cleaner too.

not sure about other states, but here in Pa we need both the front AND rear brakes to activate the brake light, with the hydraulic switch its still very clean looking and LEGAL unlike without a switch
