R80 electrical problem
Hello my friends,
I'm currently in northern Peru labouring my weary brain cell with an electrical issue relating to my R80. It's running but the electric start sometimes thinks twice before working. Also, today the engine cut out while on the move. Because it didn't bump-start while coasting, my best guess is that there's a short circuit relating to the engine kill-switch.
I've found no chafed wiring around the steering column and the bundle of earth wires under the tank are fine. And so I have resigned myself to a full investigation with the dreaded multimeter. Before I do, I was wondering if any you wise wanderers knew of common gremlins (e.g. starter relays, the starter/kill switch . . .)
Thank you!
Bob
