Hey Wondered if anyone can help/point in the right direction/advice... Tonight I went out for a local ride, left during daylight but when I started my bike up to come home in the dark i noticed that the dash wasnt lit up...? All the lights (neutral, indicators, etc) are working fine... To be honest this is the first time I've ridden the bike in the dark so haven't noticed it before... Thanks Richard
Check your battery is over 12.6 volts with a multimeter. If it is check the charging circuit, it should be around 14.3 volts, anymore may mean regulator/rectifier is toast or generator is having issues. I'm having the same trouble and have replaced the battery and the reg/rec (aftermarket mosfet) and still have it charging at 16.6 volts! I need to check the generator to make sure that's outputting correctly. If it is, then my new reg/rec is the wrong one for the bike. I also find my headlight turns off and all the idiot lights go out over 3k rpm.
Yep, mine too, even with new battery, mosfet reg rec and volts steady as a rock at 14.3v when running at any speed and load. Dash still flickering and going out for long periods then on again only to go off for no reason. Just doesn’t make any sense. Thx. Rich.
