Funny how the switch was working 10 minutes before I pulled the grey plug, let that be a warning to all, don't go near the grey plug, it'll kill your clutch switch :furious:

So I found out the problem, the switch was good.
I asked on another post the other day what glue to use on oxford grips.
I had some Tarzan's grip that I used but the next day it was still not a solid hold on the grip.
So while test riding the bike today the grip had moved, see pic, this resulted in the clutch lever not going in far enough to engage the switch. The lever went all the way in but for about 10mil so it was not as obvious as the pic suggests.
I now have the grip rock solid with super glue and hopefully this won't happen again, bloody hell.

I was going to suggest to check the connectors are fully home. The clutch interlock switch is a common culprit, dont leave it bridged.  Remove the connectors, clean them  up properly and give the spade connectors a gentle crimp and push them back on, ensure they seat home too.
I try to take one day at a time, however sometimes several days catch up with me at once.
