xl883, red oil light, won't start
I have a 2007 Sportser XL883
I left it out all winter, like normal, except that I did not take out the battery as I normally would - because I intended to buy a new battery anyway.
Tried to start it. Lights, blinkers etc. work fine, but absolutely no response when I try to start it. The red oil light displays, but the oil looks fine, DIAGS are fine, and the battery is fine.
Amy suggestions?

Quick test, if your have a DC Volt meter - attach to the battery, note the static voltage, turn ignition on - note voltage, attempt to start the bike - note voltage. If the battery voltage drops below 9.5 volts, needs to be charged or replaced. If your batt is 5yrs old - just replace it. You don't want to be stuck on the road................
