The "alternator" on them sucks. Below a certain RPM the electrical load is still net negative. If you've let it sit for a while, and then only take it on short rides, or slow rides... sounds like an empty battery. Easy to diagnose, jump it from your car when you know it has trouble starting. If it immediately fixes the problem, the problem is your battery is either drained, or, because it spent too much time drained, permanently weak and needs replacing. If it's not that, then I have no clue. Actual engines are black magic to me. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Nighthawk Motorcycle Lovers!" group.
