OK
Wasn't the clutch switch ...
wasn't the side stand switch ...
wasn't the neutral switch ...
it was the cutoff relay unit ... nothing wrong with it, fully connected but I had
put it on facing outwards instead of inwards like the pic below, this must have caused
a loose connection...turned it over and it works fine now ...simple as that.
nearly a full week of stripping down, cleaning connections, taking undertray off again,
removal of side stand and switch etc ...a real pain in the ass .
happy though it wasn't something serious but jeezus .
big thanks for all your suggestions
cheers guys
