Neutral switch
The "N" glows just fine when in neutral UNTIL after riding for say a couple hours then it stops lighting up when in neutral. So, wondering if it's the switch going bad or in the wiring or something else. Any thoughts? I'd like to hear them. Thanks

When the light doesn't illuminate will the bike start without the clutch pulled in? I'd check the connection and pull the switch and make sure there's no junk built up on it.
It's just to the right of the tranny oil fill hole.

If that doesn't fix it, try the actual light. I'm not familiar with where the N light is on a Road Glide but I had the light bulb for neutral go out on my 08 Road King. Some times it worked, sometimes it didn't, and then eventually, not at all.
Vernal had the right test for the switch.

My neutral light used to be faulty and do odd things...I put in a new switch and mine is perfect now.
