Battery Charging

Hi, A question for you all. I have to store my bike outside, although it has various covers, so water tight. I was going to fit a Solar trickle charger, as it doesn't get much use during the winter, just to keep the battery topped up. Question is, do you have to disconnect the terminals from the bik...

Re: Help with Electrics

Hi all, The end of the saga. Spent Saturday morning dismantling the bike, checking all fuses, and connections. Nothing out of the ordinary, a few contacts cleaned, just to be sure.

Re: Help with Electrics

Cheers for everything.
Had the CCTs done when I picked up the bike, just in case.

Checked good old bay, they range from 60 quid to 15/20, bit of a range.

Hi,
I'll check the main, thanks for the heads up.

Put key in, turned to ignition, and nothing, not a light, no power what so ever. Took battery off, rech...
