Hi all. I have recently scratched an itch that was always there and bought a 2001 V11 sports. It is a beautiful bike and i am trying to bond with it as often as possible. Unfortunately my first bonding session ended up with a loss of half the the points on my license and a visit to the judge next week. (ridiculously low speed limits here in Japan) However I believe no lasting relationship is always smooth, just got to roll with it.
I have been scouring these boards for weeks and must say how impressed I am with the knowledge and helpfullness given here. Now to the one answer i cannot find which maybe someone has an answer for.
My neutral light stopped working about 50 kms. into my first ride. Checked the wiring and bulb were working by touching the wire to the body and got the neutral light glowing in it''s green glory. Problem solved I think. Just got my new switch and put it in today with a gearbox oil change. Still get nothing and can still short the wire to get the light on. Has anyone worked there way through this one before? And I do not want to ride without the problem fixed as it is a pain to sit on the bike with the stand up to warm it up.
Also if anyone knows how to test the switch out of the bike with a multimeter I would be eternally grateful ( electrics are not my strong point. If it can't be hit with a hammer it is voodoo to me )
