I'd guess that if there's no neutral light, the bike thinks it's in gear, so no starter motor. I'd start with the neutral wiring, or even just loose battery connections :P

Does it turn over with the clutch pulled in ?

Same thing happened to me. Light sanding of the connections to the battery sorted it out.

Does the key fit? You might be on the wrong bike, you have an XB12S.

Yes Mr. Bonz.......if the bike is in gear it should start with the clutch pulled in.

OK. It doesn't, but as there's nothing else wrong with it I think I'll just ignore it.
