Tiger

I added lights to my 06 Tiger, wired them directly to the battery, ok not directly but after a fuse and a switch.. but my point.. how are you checking your voltage while driving? Taking the seat off and using a Fluke or Amprobe to test current and volts just don't seem like a safe thing to be doing. or at least to us less talented folks.. personally I'd love to have a volt gauge on my bike but alas where would you put it? Do you feel testing it on the stand with all the lights going is close enough? And I notice comments about the ground wire to the frame.. I thought I read somewhere that you can't ground to the frame on a Tiger.. everything must have its own ground wire.. I think its due to the aluminum compond in the frame
