Fancy... I would prefer only 1 shift light myself thoe. So that I don't need to look at which lights are turning on. If there is just one, you can shift away, the second you notice it go on from the corner of your eye.

A few modern bikes have a single light that comes on just before the rev limiter.

The attached pic shows the MV dials (F4 and Brutale are the same). The light is on the right hand side just above the "Rev limiter" label.

I suppose they kept it away from the other lights so there was no mistaking what it was for.

Got one on the Turbo,but by the time I react it's usually on the rpm limiter anyway.......
