I see a lot of threads where people are tring to solve problems or improve performance.. I have noticed an absolute positive about my FXD. I owned four other motorcycles before buying my Harley, and every one of them was prone to giving a green neutral light when it wasn't in neutral (that'll make you look like an *** at a traffic signal). When the neutral indicator lights up on my FXD, it's in neutral. Period. Yay Harley. Anyone ever had a different experience?

 

Mine gave a false neutral light. I replaced the switch for I think $20. Problem solved..

 

Mine flickers all the time, except when I'm in neutral then it stays light like it's suposed too.
I replaced the switch and it work for a couple of days then went back to flickering. I just live with it.

 

Mine flickers when I'm on the highway ... thought it was a fluke or a "shift stupid" light.. but I was wrong... I'm just going to live with it...

Ride safe

 

I have had that with other bikes in the past...so far in a month of ownership of my 06 Wide Glide...not once!

 

Mine has been flickering for about a month now every time I ride, Yesterday it stopped flickering and stayed on whichever gear I am in, in addition to this my Red ignition light now is on all the time, looking for answers???

 

If the connection to your neutral switch is loose you will get a flickering light. If the wire is completely off the light will stay on; likewise if your switch goes bad the light may stay on, or off.

I have a 76 KZ900 I rode to work a few months ago. Had never noticed a problem with my neutral light. Went out to go home, put my choke on and reached over to start the bike. Clutch has to be pulled in on this bike. Let go of the clutch while standing next to the bike and off it went. Pretty embarrassing.

 

haven't had a problem yet with the indicator light, but I still ease off the clutch while seated and prepared for it to still be in gear ... only thing certain is that the one time I'm not prepared for it to still be in gear is the one time it'll still be in gear

 

I never had a problem either , i hope i don't either because i always start my bike in neutral without holding in the clutch does anybody else do the same ?
