Electrical gremlins
Hiya, Ive got a 98 VTR and its got a little electrical gremlin.
It slowly discharges the battery over about a week. Ive fully recharged the battery and disconnected the earth terminal and after a week or more connect up and bike starts perfectly. Leave the terminal connected and battery within 5 days wont start. I immediately thought rectifier/regulater so connected a ammeter in line with the battery and with everything off and key out it still has a 35-40 ma draw. Then unplugged R/R and no change, so proceded to pull all fuses 1 at a time and appears the fuse that supply the instruments cluster is the circuit the current draw is thru. Any Ideas on what may be causing it? 35 ma is only a tiny load but over a period of time sucks the battery dry. Where next too look????
