False Neutral Light On
Published by glider (Community Liaison)

If you are having a problem with the neutral light coming on when not in neutral, there has been an upgrade done with the switch itself.

I had this problem after washing the bike. Water gets into the housing and causes the neutral light to come on through all the gears as it heats up when riding after a washing.

The M1205 Service Bulletin came out in March 07 and will address this problem. You can find that bulletin here.

New neutral switch PN 33926-06B has been introduced with better o-ring seal and internal spring to eliminate this problem. I also noticed that when this problem started that the shifting didn't seem as smooth as it had been but kind of stiff and finding neutral was more difficult now.
The new switch eliminated all this.
When this switch isn't functioning properly, you'll find that the clutch lever switch is also not working, the bike will start in gear without the lever being pulled in.

I had to research this and bring the part number above to my dealer, they had no clue what was wrong.

It's also been said that if the neutral light does come on when it is not supposed to that the security indicator will light up which indicates a problem. I didn't have this happen.
