    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

hi, havent been here in awhile and thats a good thing... but i recently tried to start my bike after it had been sitting for about 3 weeks and i'm getting no lights when i turn the key.. i had the battery charged and its reading 13v, so thats not the problem. the cover i have for the bike isnt 100% water-proof so im thinking some rain got in somewhere and shorted something.. i just have no idea where or how to start troubleshooting this.. any suggestions??

Use a multimeter to verify where in the circuits in question the voltage is present. Then see where voltage downstream of that pioint is not present. Then you keep on narrowing it down further. Start at the main fuse. If you've got no voltage there, then nothing will work. You may simply have a loose and/or dirty connection.
Of course, this all asumes that you have a wiring diagram or are experienced enough to figure out the circuits yourself.
The above is tedious but will guarantee you find the failure point.
 
thanks man.. i have to admit i was hoping for sumthin a little easier.
