New Issue
I replaced the R/R a few days ago, and today I got to take the bike out and ran into more issues. It starts, but once I start it, the kickstand light doesn't work. Then when I put the bike into gear, the bike shuts off. Its almost as the clutch isn't being recognized. The R/R is off of a 2006 R6.
I don't know where to start with this one?

Kick stand switch loose / unplugged? I believe you'll see it down at the base where the stand bolts in, there will be a plunger that gets pushed when the stand is up (not near my bike, so apologies if I'm thinking of something else I rode).
Trace that back and see if its disconnected somewhere, it should have a plug. You can also unplug them and jumper the bike side (not stand side) of the connection with a paperclip to simulate the circuit being closed. See if that makes it behave any different.

Good that you solved the problem. While you're under the seat, it would be a good idea to check all of the connectors and add a bit of dielectric grease to each of them.....corrosion never sleeps!
