Put another ounce or two of oil in it and all will be well. It is the oil level switch that is doing it,it is a common problem easily solved

...or it may be defective.(getting stuck)

This is also true,but I have seen many are just not calibrated correctly. Hey anything is possible

This is normal, I have the same stupid problem. I just do like twizted, add oil:beer <~~see she likes it:thumbup :yesnod

I heard they can get out of adjustment from bumps and wheelie landings and stuff

Correct me if I am wrong, but this year there was a change to the oil light sensor setup. It was done to eliminate false oil light illuminating. I would have the dealer check it out. Also, You could try to top your oil off to the full and see if that helps. Good luck...Michael

Chris, what you experienced is very common. The oil light sensor detects the oil level (not pressure). The light comes on if it drops about 4oz from full. At this point, you aren't even close to being in trouble. It gives you a lot of advance warning. That's a good thing! :thumbup Just top it off after the ride. :yesnod
