Swapping parts will cost you a lot more in the long run.
First Check for codes if you are getting the light there will be one. It requires no special equipment to do so.
It could be a damaged Crank sensor also the code will likely give you a pretty good idea what is causing it.
Also year and model would help a lot.

People here are willing to help.
Yes I saw the 2004 1200 Custom Sportster.
If the OP is not willing to take the time to explain clearly and specifically what is wrong, other than the copy and paste, I don't know why they should expect others to take the time to diagnose or troubleshoot for them.
So my advice is take it to the shop.

I ended up taking to the shop and feel dumb. The oil light coming on and the recent event had me in search for the problem mode. Well I was out of gas and once put on reserve no prob I've only had this bike a few weeks. Never thought that could bethe problem. Thank you to all that reached out I see what you mean by coping and pasting I'll try and be detailed in future posts. On another note happy to ride this afternoon. Doooh
