I’ll soon have another Nighthawk 650 so I’ll be able to compare and adjust

That does sound different. It's a rotary switch with a half dozen contacts
on the 80s bikes. I had to take it apart and clean them all up then bend
the spring a little to make it work again. Cabo sounds fun, as long as this
heat wave finally breaks.

Kyle,that sounds pretty different. The 90s bikes have no gear indicator, and
the neutral switch has a single bullet connector. I added some dielectric
grease and took it for a ride to heat it up. Better, but the neutral light
still went off right after coming on sometimes. I went ahead and
I put them in mine when I had it and remember making smaller spacers and
pushing hard to get the caps on, but in the end I couldn't tell the
difference either.

Yes, that's normal. If your engine stopped when you put down the side stand
while in neutral, as mine sometimes does, you would consider it abnormal, I
suppose.

My 750 that I just sold would die if stand went down while in gear. I assumed
normal.

I'm not sure about the 90s bikes, but on the 80s bike the clutch switch is
a simple 2 post job and easy to test. The gear indicator switch, which
includes the neutral indicator, is also pretty simple to test with a
multimeter. Sometimes they get gunked up and need to be cleaned out. Again,
no idea

Now, one should be able to
