I may have found the reason for my speedometer / odometer problems. Also the headlight at night seems to go from VERY BRIGHT to VERY DIM ... back & forth. I checked the battery & charging system ... charging at as high as 18.3 volts at road speed ... 15 to 17 volts at idle. Seems way too much ... replace voltage regulator ??? |

Before you do that check and clean all of the connections, and the battery and the grounds and the ground straps. |
