Like everyone one else said....ive seen low viscosity oil, faulty oil pressure switches, faulty pumps and the plain old "oil sloshing to the back" causing problems on bikes with no problems engine oil wise.....

Freind has a kawasaki er-6n (ninja 650r to you guys) and he had enough oil (ok not right up and level with the max.), but problem was that under really hard braking his light would light up because the oil sloahed away from the oil syphon and the pump started sucking up little bits of air.

Another freind had oil which had somehow mixed with his gas on an old suzuki, oil level was fine but oil was so fluid the oil dropped below the switch's threshold and the light came on.....

Get a kawasaki mechnic to have a look, they should be able to hook up a barometer to check the oil pressure at different temps and engine speeds and compare it to kawasaki's specifications.....
