Just got a brand new battery about 2 months ago. It worked at first but now when I turn the ignition the neutral light doesn't come on. I've already checked the fuses and they seem to be ok. What could the problem be?
 
Is the battery dead?
If your charging system isn't working well it won't charge the battery. No charge, the bike quits.

If your talking about neutral light on cluster...I had a loose connection on top of cases where light connects to...under carbs...fixed mine
 
Hi bret,
when you turn the key does the tail light come on?
Will the e-start turn the engine over?
Has some helpful fellow flipped the killswitch?
Many questions.
Post more details.
 
It could be as simple as the neutral light bulb burning out. Many of the little light bulbs in my instrument cluster were burned out when I got my bike. One more has crapped out since I've had the bike. I think the vibration kills them.
 
Did you try a jumper from the neutral switch to a good ground with the key on?
That is a quick easy check then the bulb that can be harder to get to.
