Is this bike supposed to be able to run with the kickstand down? Mine does not, in addition, my neutral light works at guage-test, but not when the bike is running and the kickstand is up and it's in neutral......

Ideas?

The F4 will not run with the sidestand down, unless the bike doesnt think its down. The sidestand light is quirky; if its on "NO RUN."

The neutral light is an estimation at best, sometimes it will light up sometimes it wont, an Italian quirk.

The bike will start with the stand down, as long as the bike is in neutral

The MV will start with the kickstand down and the bike in neutral IF, and only if the neutral light is operative. If the neutral light switch is defective, the bike will not start with the stand down even if the bike is in neutr
