Hi guys. Any thoughts on a little problem i've got with the electrickery.
Brand new Gen Yam wiring loom. All systems good while at idle. Rev it up and the selected indicator stop on. Horn goes really faint etc then when back to idle all ok again. Horn ok and indicators start flashing again!!
Any thoughts??

Or could be rectifier/regulator.....check the voltage at the battery when at tickover and when revving. Also put battery on an optimate or similar to check if it charges ok.

Knackered regulator rectifier passing AC voltage through will cook your battery!

have you put a meter on the battery and found out what voltage is going in to it.

Battery still sounds ther most likely.. My RG500 use to do the exact same thing when the battery was on it's way out.. Just buy a new battery, they are not expensive..

Check battery voltage at idle and when revving.
Could be a bad earth also.

Ignition set up again i reckon.
