Posted: 12:29 - 27 Mar 2019 Post subject: CBF125 Neutral light issue |
|
|
Hi, having an issue with my bike and wondered if anyone could shed some light on it.
Occasionally when I go to start the bike the Neutral light doesn't come on. So long as I put the kick stand up and pull the clutch in (not sure if both of these are necessary but it's what i've been doing) the bike will start and as soon as the engine starts the neutral light mysteriously comes on.
This has happened 4 or 5 times in the past 2 months and i'll have a week or so where everything is working perfectly, then i'll go to start the bike and the neutral light won't come on.
I've just passed my test (woohoo!) so looking to sell this and get a bigger bike - it's in really good condition but I'm not happy selling it with this issue.
I'm no mechanic but like a bit of DIY and willing to have a go so please make any instructions easy to understand Thanks!

Yes - definitely in Neutral at the end of a ride as I let the clutch out (engine still running) and walk backwards with the bike (whilst i'm on it) into the bike parking bays or the driveway.
When I start the bike back up the Neutral light comes on straight away when the engine starts, it just doesn't show when the bikes not running.
First time it happened I was there for ages clicking between 1st and 2nd gear trying to get the light to come on, but nothing until the bike is running. Doesn't happen every day, hadn't happened for a couple of weeks (I changed the bulb) so I thought that was it fixed but happened again yesterday |

I've just had a look at where the neutral switch is and ordered a new one Hopefully that will fix it! Thanks for your help! |
