Remove the spark plugs and tie the wires off to the side to prevent arcing. Thumb the starter button until the light goes out. There's enough speed in the starter motor to produce oil pressure to activate the switch and you don't have to worry about damage.

Just about 10 minutes ago I resolved the problem, I found a few threads online that you can get air stuck at the oil pump and it won't build pressure and to solve it you should just barely crack the oil filter. I figured I'd give it a shot and try it very carefully. Cracked it and cranked it, after a couple seconds the light went off.
Incase anyone reads this and has a similar issue, I had let my oil drain for a long time while working on my bike, I suspect this caused the issue.
Regardless, I appreciate the response, I'll keep that in mind incase I ever run into a similar issue again.
