LDoes anyone know what to expect with this wire? What it connects to, and will I have to remove my pipes to get the engine cover off?

so its a ground? as in no need to pull off the cover, just attach it to the frame? I just changed the gasket on my exhaust, I really would love not having to pull off the pipes to open the cover

this is the blue neutral wire that is loose, is this just a ground?

It is not just a ground. As the wiring diagram shows, there is a switch between the wire and the ground. If you tie the wire directly to ground, I'm guessing that the bike will think that it's always in neutral. (I'm only looking at the diagram versy posted.)

As a check for the problem - ground that loose wire and see if the neutral light comes on.  If it does - then you will confirm that going inside and fixing the loose wire is the correct repair.

If you just ground the wire.....the neutral light will stay on all the time.

Yes thanks I did more research found out about the neutral switch. I already ordered a new one, just have to take the cover off and maybe loose my gasket in the process. Thank you everyone for the help

Don't lose the little post in the switch under the cover. It's very small and can drop off before you see it.
