Bump

Ok, so I replaced the headlight with the correct 35w/35w headlight and now at idle its 13.3 volts and at 5k around 13.8-9 volts.
Should I just leave it be?

I wouldn't think it would make that big of a difference, even with a new headlight.

Ok, I think I've lost track - let's back up a step. With the headlights on and the bike turning 5k, what is the voltage across the battery terminals? 13.3 with headlights on at at 5k. I did check the headlight and it's a 55/60 watt light. So tomorrow I'm going to go to the cycle shop and see if the...

That's fairly discharged; should be around 12.8vdc. Do you have a charger, throw it on overnight? Yeah, I can put it on. When I first got the battery it was charging at 14 volts and when I went to 3k it went down to like 13.8. Not sure if that's the info you're tying to get at by me charging the ba...

12.1

I just replaced the battery. Its a sealed self contained battery, if that matters.

There's nothing electronic that would affect the brake lights. If the brake lights are staying on with both switches physically disconnected, then you have a physical short somewhere. The first places to look are the switch connectors and the tail light sockets. Don, Thank you for the reply. The sw...

Bump.

So I found out my battery was getting to much of a charge 17 volts. For some reason I decided to remove the battery to see if the stator would run the bike (I found out this is not a good idea). So it blew my headlights and from what I can tell, the break lights are stuck on with the ruining lights....
