I installed my new digital instrument cluster this weekend. Of course you have to remove the headlight and old cluster. Guess what I found? A single barrel connector unplugged. I found the mate and plugged them back together. When I finished the install and had the bike all put back together, I tried to start it in gear with the clutch pulled in. VIOLA!!!! So much for expert support. By the way I love Matt's digital cluster!!!
Glad you got it figured out. It's a good idea to go through the entire wire harness and check every connector and while your at it put some dielectric grease on those connectors to prevent corrosion in the future.
