Hi Alfred.
 There is a neutral indicator switch in the clutch and transmission assembly.  It is possible that the problem is there.

 It is also possible that the pushrod is bent again if the bike is ridden particularly hard.  Also make sure that the clutch is adjusted correctly.

 If you have a hydraulic clutch, then make sure that it has been bled properly as well, including the reverse trap that collects air near the master cylinder at the banjo fitting.

Let me know what you find.
Good luck.

Answer
Hi Alfred.
 Whatever you checked, it wasn't the pushrod.  The pushrod is inside the clutch assembly in the engine.  Access is fairly simple.  You could get a manual through any decent bike shop or the Suzuki dealership or online.  If you can, get the factory repair manual, otherwise, Clymers and Haynes are the next obvious choices.

online you can go to the following;

www.repairmanuals.com  (there are probably manuals available on ebay and buy.com as well)

Good luck.
