Title: Very strange electrical problem
Post by: encryptor on April 24, 2009, 09:14:48 AM
I went out the day before to ride my bike to keep it in shape. It hasnt been started in a month. It ran fine.  Then the next day I went out to start it and the battery was dead some how.  Temperatures have been warm.

So I push it down hill and pop the clutch and i starts up.  But then when ever I give it any throttle it starts bogging down like its going to die. My low beams were on. Oddly enough when I switch my high beams on it runs fine. No bogging nothing, but now the battery will not charge when riding it for a while.  But it Im riding it down hill with the clutch pushed in it dies even with the high beams on.

Anyone have any suggestions as to what the problem could be?
