Ive taken it out for several rides and it performs well. However, the other day while riding, i noticed that the turn signals were not blinking. The indicator light on the dash was illuminated, however, it stayed on solid and did not blink. My first impulse was that i needed to replace the relay.
However, that weekend, when i went to diagnose the problem, everything is now working fine. Blinkers are back to working fine.
The battery is brand new and strong. Headlight seems nice an bright and starter spins strong.
Next i took it out for a ride last weekend and was working on adjusting the idle. In the midst of doing that that it stalls at a red light. I go to restart it and BAM.. No starter. All the lights come on.. Headlight, dash lights, etc all working. However the starter was completely inoperable. Fortunate for me i was at the top of a hill and was able to do a rolling start to get back home.
I limp back home making sure it does not stall. Once i pull back into the driveway, i kill it and try the starter and BAM it works like nothing was every wrong. Ive tried it again several time since and it works every time.
So now im faced with this intermittent electrical issue. My guess is that its the rectifier, however, electrical systems are not really my expertise.
Anyone out there got any suggestions or tips on troubleshooting this?
Many thanks in advance.
