There is a fix for that , a separate wire is added to the harness I think . Did you ask Simon Marshall about it yet ? Does your bike have the oil in air box fix ? Ask about this as well when you PM Simon Marshall.

I didn't have the "N" neutral light come on until the other day. Sometimes it'll come on if I tap the front or rear brakes. Or it'll sometimes come on when I'm cruising down the road. It's very intermittent but annoying and distracting. I have done a wire wiggle test. With the bike parked, engine off, key on and bike in gear I tug and wiggle all the wire and connectors. I can not get the neutral light to come on at all. I've tried putting the shifter in first gear and wiggling the shifter thinking maybe it's a little out of adjustment but no such luck, I wiggle and tug on the neutral switch wiring and plug on the right side of the bike near the clutch. Still no luck. But once I ride it, it comes back on.
On a one mile ride I counted 9 times that it came on. It'll flash off and on for a split second. This happens from 1200-3500 rpm. I haven't wound it out to higher rpm yet due to breaking in the engine. Sometimes when I tap the front or rear brakes it'll flash on. I tugged and wiggled the wiring to and from the speedometer but I can NEVER get it to do it with the bike at a stand still, with key on, engine off, in gear. The weird thing is none of this happened until I hit 100 miles exactly. I know that has nothing to do with it but just weird.

Well Saturday I went and checked every wire connection on the bike and all were tight. I tugged and wiggled all the wires and still could not duplicate the "N" lights to come on. I packed all the electrical connectors with dielectric grease and checked and greased all ground wires. I went on a 45 mile bike ride yesterday and I gave up counting how many times it flashed off and on. It's annoying as hell. In one mile I counted over 20 times. But I did notice the higher the RPM, the less is flickers off and on. It seems that between 1000 and 3500 rpm is the worse. Above 3500 it's almost non existent. I'm not giving up yet. I'll keep posting until I figure it out. But were forecasting rain all week long.
