I'm having some electrical problems with my scooter. I've already had two different HD shops tell me they don't see a problem. They've both checked the electrical system, charging and starting and found nothing wrong.
The Problem: Bike loses power and then dies. It's done this three times on the road. Twice during daylight and once during night driving. I noticed the last time it happend, during the night, that the headlight, taillight, front signal markers and the instrument cluster just slowly fade out to nothing, then the motor dies. After it's died the lights all come back to what appears to be full juice, but there's not even the click click noise afterwards. Just silence. :wall:wall:wallPrevious to the stalling problem I'd get about 4-10 starts in a day and then I'd get a click click sound when I hit the start button. But the lights and stuff still looked pretty strong. I assumed it needed a new starter and had it replaced. Bike ran fine for a couple of weeks.
Couple of background notes: I keep a trickle charger on it even though it's driven daily. Also the original owner had an alarm on it but it was malfunctioning so the last owner before me had it disconnected. The bikes got just a little over 30K on it and sat in storage for most of the last 6 years although the battery is only about six months old.
I checked out the self help page first and I've made list of things it could possibly be based on those but I didn't see a topic that was similar to mine. Any help would be appreciated.
