dragstar_125 Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 hey guys!!! LIL problem, want to know aif any1 else with a 125 drag has had this problem, when it has been raining and i get on the bike i shift from neutral to 1st and the neutral light still stays on , not as strong just a glimmer of light , sometimes worse with worse weather, im guessing this is due to water getting in somewere!?!?! infor and advice please!! P.S thought i would get two birds with one stone, also in bad weather my bike seems to be dragging i have talked about this before, the back end of my front mudd guard has been broken and water flicks up and hits the enginge constantly, could this be having an adverse effect on the engine?!?!? thanks Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the rectifier on the 125 at the front of the bike opposite the front wheel? Could be getting wetter than normal - it prevents overcharging of the electrical systems and, as it only allows a specific amount of voltage to go to the battery, excess water MIGHT affect it so that might be yer problem - although dont quote me on it - i could be way off.

dragstardave Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Hi Chris have a look at the conection on the regulator if its dirty give it a clean and some wd40 might sort it out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madison Motorsport Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 It does sound like a bad connection somewhere, most likely a bad earth. Check all connection for any signs of corrosion. clean them up, add a smear of copper grease and tape them over with electrical tape to stop any further water ingress.
