Clutch switch?

Does anyone know what the clutch switch is/does? I can't figure out what its job is. Could it have any effect on the low oil press light? Thanks

Thats kinda funny. Thanks gents. Alex I'll give you specifics Tuesday or Wednesday but I may be keeping my hyper with a salvage title. I don't know the exact details till I hear what the Ins co. wants for the buy back. Any idea what the salvage $ is worth?

if of any value. I paid $800 for an 02 Suzuki TLRn in 08 when I had an insurance payout of about $6k.

the clutch switch doesn't factor in the false neutrals that you occasionally get. This happens when the dash has the neutral light on, but the sneaky tranny is secretly in gear when you start it.
