Engine light on

Glad you got to bottom of it Nolton
Nice picture by the way!

So how long before you get here?

At the RAA last weekend my engine light came on. Looked down and noticed the gear indicator was showing I was in first gear. I was really in fifth gear at the time. After three restarts the light went off and the indicator went back to normal.

Any ideas what happened in my situation? Do I need to clean the gear shift sensor or something?

If it's a '10 to March '13 Roadster, it's probably the beginning of the end for your GPS, and cleaning does nothing.

Solder and heat shrink

All good so far.

So no one has good advice other than @DEcosse ?

I've got some advice but it is in no way related to the Thunderbird

Is this maybe another bike with a problem with the gear sensor? If the light comes on when you switch gears, it's probably that and may be caused humidity creeping in the sensor, especially if else, absolutely nothing goes on, no funny noises etc.

O2 sensor.

Look at that super-low MAP sensor pressure - those big cylinders sure suck down a lot of air at 1100 rpm!!
