This is normal on some bikes. If the light only flickers briefly under hard acceleration it's nothing to worry about. The oil level sensors seem to be more sensitive on some bikes than others.
Put the bike on the centre stand, start the engine for 30-60 seconds, then watch the oil window until the oil settles.That's your proper level.Chances are there's just not enough oil in the sump.The light is for the level, not pressure.
Yep I had the same thing and all it took was about an eggcup full of oil to stop it.

The oil level is at max (at center stand).I rather wont add any more. I double checked this today. Its in deed when accelerating max, and mostly uphil. So the sensor is oil level not pressure? Is there as well a pressure sensor (and warning light)? Because pressure tells much more than level. Especially during acceleration. Are there any baffles in the sump to make sure not all the oil goes straight to the back at acceleration? Or is the oil pickup at the back? While the sensor for the level is at the front? My other bike is dry sump (wr250f) so never such issues there...
After drving for 1 hour and than rest it for 2 min.Level is very close to max.
Make it an ostrich egg cup full
I always thought it was the 'change up' light.
Mine sometimes does the same accelerating hard uphill. Oil level at the max mark when on the centre stand on level ground. Would like to know if your eggcup did the business.
