Sorry I can't help with the oil light issue. Did you use an OEM gasket? I had a similar problem when I used the wrong gasket on the sump (that gasket is different for bikes with/without oil cooler). So it does seem like a oil passage is partially blocked. Does revving the engine make the light go away?

I'm curious what sprockets you are running. Stock? I have a 17t front sprocket and I sometimes worry I am shortening the clutch plate life.

Just for clarity's sake, the gasket is OEM, and the sprockets are the original sizes.  The light's state didn't change with revs. The brightness would max out if the kill switch was used to off the bike, but that's it.

The light seems to be functioning properly now. It could've been an air bubble. I had it drained and the side cover off for a few weeks. After some riding it seems to have gone away, perhaps the bubble was dislodged. That or the problem was electrical as lucas was saying. Either way, seems peachy now.   :dunno_white: :icon_mrgreen:
