So I just noticed today that when I start up my bike, the light on the left half of the speedo on the instrument cluster goes on and off. It is pretty annoying, and would be especially frustrating at night. It flicks on and then about 5 seconds later, turns off, and then about 5 seconds later turns back on... Before I go taking things apart, has anyone had this problem before, or have any suggestions as to what to try???

Thanks!

It'd take a look at both- you'll have to pull the front fairing off to get in there, start wiggling wires to see if something is loose.

Is it a repeatable 5 seconds on, 5 seconds off or is it more intermittent?

I is pretty randomly intermittent, but approx 5 sec on, 5 sec off.
