Some background. My neutral light has been coming on and off sometimes. I was due for the 5000 mile service so I performed it yesterday. I have a 2006 Ulysses. 1. Found water in the primary. I do a lot of rainy riding. Did not expect that but understand now how to prevent with grease in the rubber sleeve over clutch adjuster. 2. Changed oil to Formula +. Immediately after change it appeared light was working. Had to wait to ride until later in the evening and could not find neutral and light was not working after starting up. 3. Checked primary chain it was adjusted properly probably a little more than 1/2" cold. Say 5/8". 4. This AM adjusted clutch and handle after reading the forum for issues. EZ to do. Now can find neutral but still no light. 5. During adjustment verified that primary oil was at the right level. While clear in the bottom it had some oil with condensate in it on the cover. Now my questions? 1. Should I go ahead and change the primary oil again to make sure all water is flushed out? 2. While pulling the sprocket cover to check the neutral indicator saw rust on the front sprocket. Is this a real bad thing? 3. The neutral indicator is slightly behind the sprocket. I was very wary of pulling the wire to do the ground check because I wasn't sure that I could get in back on. Is there a trick to this? And what would you use for a ground? Thanks, Mike (Message edited by gtmg on May 25, 2007) | ||

Take a long hard ride on a hot day and that water will evaporate right out. |
