Take the plugs out, hold them with a pair of pliers and hold them over a gas flame to get them dry.

Put them back in.

Start bike with clutch pulled in, takes for a ride, get it nice and hot. If neutral light doesn't come on, swap the switch...

Firebolts are the future... :twisted:

Told you those Micron systems are shit :roll:
Did you remove the cylinder head for repair ?
If pulling the clutch in gives you a neutral light, you have a diode problem.

Because when I was trying to start it again it smelt strong fuel and when it first went ticked over great until I took it up the road and started coughing and spluttering so thought it might of been over fuelling
