Hi all Savage Riders,
Rode up the central California coast last weekend, it was beautiful! I post a trip report in a few days. But first, I have what might be the beginning of serious elecrical trouble and was wandering if anyone can give advice. This morning I pull the bike out of the garage for work. I turn the key and the lights come on but they flicker intermittantly. They don't go completely out but all of the lights would get dim and then get bright on and off. The bike started just fine but the flickering continued while she was idling. It seem to clear up after I took off down the road but when I used my turn signals they would blink just fine at first but then they would blink rapidly. That is usually an indication that a bulb is out but none are. After being on the road awhile the turn signals seemed to act normally but just as i got to work, They started blinking fast again after about three normal blinks. Again, the bike starts and runs fine. Anybody have any advice on this? Thanks, Frank
