Neutral Switch

I shall give this a go later in the evening, thanks for the idea

 

Ok so the bike was in neutral or at least it should of been as I could move it freely with no clutch pulled in.

New switch and washer installed, no neutral light.

Sat on the bike pushed it up and down my garage and went through the gears. As I got to 5th (bike is on at this point so I can monitor neutral light) the bike made the same noise as when you first turn the ignition on and then i went back down to neutral and the light has come on and has now stayed on. I removed it double checked everything added it back in and light was on still without the need of going through the gears.

 

If you haven't changed how far in the switch is located in the crank case, sounds like it just failed to make contact momentarily internally and now resolved is my only guess.

 

Yer, it could be the old switch still works but I'm not going to bother testing as I have been having issues with the neutral light since owning the hyper. Thank you for you help and again sorry for hijacking the thread. Hopefully @Vader has success with his issue

 

as above, apologies Vader, hope yours is fixed.

 

Glad it's fixed, mine seems to be but I've yet to take it out as going to be taking the wheels off to change tires.

 

I don't think there was anything wrong with my neutral switch...

I changed rearsets to gecko, and with that flipped the shifting to race shift to make it fit.

I now know that actually you can't just do that to the hyper like you can with other bikes as the ecu?? Just relearns the shift pattern to standard. Which is why I had to go through the gears in the garage and then the fuel pump kicked back in and the neutral light came back on. I rode the bike yesterday to get my tires fit and I was shifting in road shift pattern even though the linkage is reversed from standard.

Silly me...

 

Just another bit of info to add. I had a neutral switch problem after a rebuild, it turned out the new factory replacement neutral switch washer was a lot thicker than the original one on the engine, I swapped them back and was all good.

 

Have you ever needed to get spares from Gecko? I only as as they never respond to emails

 

Yes, very recently actually. They sent out a new part for the RHS rearset.

[email protected] is the email I used if that helps at all.

 

Thanks - mailed them and again nothing. Apologies for the hijack!

 

That is strange as he sends emails on the weekend as well. Normally late after 5pm.

All I can offer is that I send him an email asking to respond to your email? But you'd have to pm that to me if you feel comfortable with that.

 

Thanks for the kind offer - if you could message and ask if the original rearsets for the mk1 M900 are still supported that would be very helpful

 

No worries, sent. Will let you know asap

 

No rush mate, just frustrating that's all

 

I asked your question and he replied with this link

Does this help?

 

Thanks I've seen that page but mine is the model before

 

I reckon that's a no then. I'd assume you'd have seen that page also. Sorry can't help anymore
