So it stays on even when in gear? Does happen in all gears where it stays on? If so, sounds like a bad switch. Try unplugging it. To eliminate the possibility of a bad switch, I would probably just replace it as its cheap enough. You can get these on Amazon like:

Is it ok to leave it unplugged and still use the bike?

Does the light go off when you unplug it? The point of that is to not start it in gear, as it can be safety issue if you do start it in gear. I don't think it has an effect on drivability but because its a safety/neutral switch, I can't in good sense tell you its ok to leave it unplugged and use the atv. As an owner, its up to you what you do.

      Issue with 89 Yamaha moto 4 250cc
      By Need-help-with-quads
      So I have an 89 Yamaha moto 4 250cc and when I ride it, itll get hot after like 10-15 mins and then will just die and turn off.
      It's has new carb rebuild, new air filter, new battery, new spark plug so I don't think it's a crack in the spark plug
      Can anyone help me?

      86ccord's Big Bear 250 Build!

      Starting this build thread to keep up with everything on my build and hope to motivate someone!
       
      I picked up this 2008 Yamaha Big Bear 250 2 weeks ago. A guy that I hunt with parked it at the hunt club for a year or so before I asked him if he wanted to sell. He said " fill my feeder and throw some batteries in my cameras, and you can have it". Sounds like a deal to me! 
      I have attached some pictures of how it sat under a tarp in the woods and when I got it home and cleaned up a little.

      2006 polaris sportsman 500 ho issues with the unit like the belt is slipping
      By Spritee1
      having an issue with the unit when running under a load up a hill or in high gear, seems like the belt is slipping, there is a clapping sound coming from the primary clutch like it releases and snaps back in. i don't think I should have a noise like that. this is a friends unit and he has already replaced the primary twice with the same result.
      not sure where to look next
