Plus if it was working fine BEFORE you did the undertail ,something you did caused it.Like a pinched wire in the harness or something came apart that you didnt see.

Definately not you kickstand switch ... if it was, your bike would die the second you put it in gear, not when releasing the clutch... check your wiring for the undertail. Undo whatever you did and retry it ... then redo wire by wire. Good Luck

Re-check your wiring configuration of your undertail. I know that electronics must complete a circuit and if you wired something wrong. Perhaps you have an uncomplete circuit causing the F1 light to come on, and thus causing the bike to die. Just throwing out ideas.
