Good catch, Hiker. I should have mentioned that, in my case, foot position was definitely ad contributing factor. I usually have the balls of my feet on the pegs when riding on curvy roads, but on longer trips, I sometimes move my feet forward to get comfortable. I figured out that my wife was seeing my brake light mostly on the long, straight stretches of a ride. After figuring that out, I usually just rest my heal on the peg on that side for a minute or two with my toe raised slightly to avoid hitting the brake lever.
