My very humble Suzuki GN250 has never ever given a false neutral light yet ... but yes I will admit to a few false neutrals while riding but I've always blamed myself for that.
Every morning I start her with the side stand down and the neutral light shining green ... choke out and hit the go button. Then I put on my left glove and jump on and go. Done that for 30,000 km's
I do though always park her in gear at the work end of the trip and thus jump on find neutral (via the light) and then start. At home in the shed she is left in neutral.
Sounds like any New Zealander could wire up a working neutral light better than the whole Ducati design/engineering team ... sorry have to agree, lovely bikes but this is pathetic.
