Hi guys,
Wondering if anyone can shed some light on my problem, I left my bike for a week and had a hard time starting her up today and thought it was the clutch switch that is probably dirty. Anyway, she started up after a couple mins of wiggling the switch and all was well until 30mins into my ride all my lights (brake, headlight, indicators) failed but engine, idling and neutral light was fine.
When I got to my girlfriend's place and switched her off to check the light connections and fuses nothing seemed to be out of place or blown. Tried to start her up again and I got a click but no turn over (idiot oil and neutral still on). I proceeded to check the battery terminals which were all fine, gave the battery a quick charge to see if it was low but still nothing. I'm charging the battery overnight tonight to see if it will cure this but I'm not optimistic as the first time I managed to turn her over it seemed strong and not the anaemic start that I've normally experience with dying batteries? Is there anything obvious I'm missing or should check?
Many thanks in advance,
Martin
