A blown lightbulb?

The simplest explanation is usually the best.

[hmmmnz]

lol, calm down, breath ...
do as stink whell says and check the bulb in the clocks first,
if its not that then look at the sensor (you'll see a wire going into the gear box side of the engine)
have fun

You had not thought to check the bulb?

[sagiliam]

when that happened to mine, it turned out to be my indicator relay. Just a thought?

[Jamie S]

just to ask did the indicators still work ?

[john2]

Also, have you tried twisting the handlebars each side, because this happened to myne and it was a broken wire.

[sagiliam]

[Jamie S]

I have got one of them multy meter things i dont no how to use it tho lol could i check the bulb is working with that ?
or you got a better way.?

[stinkwheel]

Well. The traditional way is to take the bulb out and look at it to see if the filament is broken.

Given that they can often be a fiddle to get at, you might want to fork out the 50p on a new one anyway and just fit it while you are in there.

[Jamie S]

broken bulb !
now all i got to do if get a new one from somewere
im thinking motorist shop ?

[sagiliam]

No try a food shop

Places like halfords will be pricey.
Try somewhere like Wilco, if there is one near you,

My neutral light is dodgy , riding you CAN sometimes get it to light up stopped at lights , it then flickers rapidly , the more you rev the more erm solid the light gets , when you stop you can kick it into neutral , then have to ding it on the side stand to make it come on , me thinks loose connector , affected by vibes , anybody any ideas?
