`07 is the first year for the neutral / clutch safety system.
You can start a bike while in gear, you just need to pull the clutch lever in.
but,,,,,,,,,,, if you have the tassels on the lever it might not be activating the switch. I put those on the wife's '16 Heritage and it was just enough t keep from contacting the switch so I had to remove them.
Had the same problem after adding tassels. Solved it by epoxying a small metal plate to the switch so that pulling the clutch lever in would depress the switch allowing starting in gear.
