    has it recently had a new oil filter???

    ive had this before on kwaks.... the oil filter gets an airlock if you fit it dry, rather than half filling it with oil then fitting it.
    theres a procedure known as 'burping' - with the bike idling, ( preferably on a cold start! ) loosen the filter slightly til oil weeps out then nip it back up.
    the light shouldnt come on again.

    if it's that!

    I posted a thread on here a while ago about my HESD light coming on. I took it to the dealer and it was a tiny censor somewhere deep in the bowls of the wiring loom that had gone bad some how :(
