Hi Dill,

First make sure you haave he right wattage/voltage bulb,next It is either one of two things ! either you have a bad earth which is arching out ( check all earth leads are clean and tight ) or your regulator/ rectifier is toast which is more likely. Best way to check is to put a voltmeter across the battery then fire the bike up, if the voltmeter shows more than 14.6 volt when you rev it then you regulator/rectifier has had it. hope this helps you sort it out

cheers Bill

Hi where would the earth connect be thanks dill
