Is your battery dead? Do you have to kick start it? If the battery is dead it'll trip the oil light circuit out.

Iacted hastily.  I had also taken off the front plastic today,  disconnected and reconnected the head light.  The connection had some corrosion that i disturbed. I took it back apart and cleaned it,  reconnected,  now everything is fine.  Not only the oil light was lighting up but the turn signals would too.  I'm not very familiar with the electrical side. I find that odd.
