Btw way to rack up miles. You must be enjoying it.
I am enjoying it very much. I see myself adjusting the ergonomics for my size (6' 3") but its not too bad where it sits. She is parked until the oil change though. Time to ride one of the neglected bikes.

But there's a curiosity: why have a neutral light when you cold put an "N' in the gear number indicator?
To add a serious post to this thread, it's a light for fast indication to the operator without needing to read the LCD. Maybe Honda deemed it to be 'at a glance' necessary, like how my Acura lights up and the dash LCD turns orange and screams FUEL LOW in huge letters, like I don't know how to read a giant fuel gauge!

It seems all bikes have a green neutral light so I wonder if that is mandated by law or something (e.g. left hand shift, right hand brakes - common controls)
RE: Sweet Dreams - shdwghst457_imp - 04-15-2014
True, and it probably still operates during an LCD malfunction.
