Motorcycles BS Thread 2.0

Pretty sure i didn’t share this here, but I had a Metal Print made of one of my photos of the DRZ:

 

Well sir I believe you achieved that!

 

legit company they are local to me.

yeah theyre cool. i run up there to buy gear usually

 

They actually flagged my order because i’ve ordered stuff for everybody in my family from them, all under my account, with different shipping names, addresses, and payment information....so they called me to confirm all of them when i ordered that Shoei for myself.

That was nice how they double check stuff

 

Hoping someone in here can help me. I've got a parasitic battery drain on my '17 WR450 after I put on a Baja Designs dual sport kit. For how much I paid for Baja Designs, I'm unimpressed. If I ride it every couple days it stays charged, but let it sit for a week and it's dead. It isn't a bad install. I completely removed it from the bike, looked it over and reinstalled it.

 

can you find what exactly is drawing the current? headlight? taillights?

 

Find the draw.
Disconnect pos bat cable,put a test light between battery cable and battery, test light should light ) if a draw is present) one by one unplug each piece and plug it back in until you find the one that makes the light go out.

 

ive got a multimeter, i just dont know what im doing. i want to check for voltage or amps at headlight? where else do i check? all the pins in the ecu?

 

Amps.

Test every positive connection that you added after you noticed the draw.

 

its an entire goddamn wiring harness built by Baja Designs. I didnt wire the fucking thing, they did. Its all wrapped up. Troubleshooting it will take hours

I called their customer service and they told me to figure out whats wrong with it and get back to them lmao

 

i wouldnt ever count on a test light for this rluble shooting

unfortunately you need to break out a multimeter. test from positive feeds to ground, ohms and amps

 

thats what i was afraid of. surely baja designs will pay me to fix their product? after i paid $200+ for it?

 

Anyone ride a Harley street rod 750? Opinions? Debating that or a forty eight and a Ducati scrambler

 

Is this your first bike?

 

@fatfurious2

 

2018 Harley 48 here!

really the best side to photograph

 

3rd one. Had a 2012 cbr 1000rr, a supermoto crf250 and a 2009 sportster for like a month haha

 

Those 1000rr’s sure are fun!

 

It was. Just a bit much in Miami. To much trouble.
