Greetings all,
I've finally been able to start taking out the new Himmy and breaking in the engine. But I have a VERY annoying battery drain that I just can't figure out.
Ever since I got the bike this past winter, if I leave the it sit for a few days, the battery will drain. I replaced the stock battery, (since everyone says it's crap), and replaced it with not one, but two new and very good quality batteries... but to no avail. I lose about 1 tenth of a volt every day. So if I start out with 12.6 volts, the next day it'll be 12.5, the next day 12.4 and so on. If I let it go for over a week, I'll have a dead battery.
The bike is totally stock... no accessories of any kind. No heated grips or USB outlets... nothing. What the heck would cause this? The only thing I can think that uses some juice even when off is the digital clock on the dash. Could that possibly be the cause? If so, how do I disable that clock, (don't need it anyway).
Let me know your thoughts.
