[QUOTE="Ignacio, post: 376510, member: 434"] Your information is based on a Gen II bike....not a Gen I which his bike is being a 2005. Gen I alternators are 490 watts and of that a whole bunch more than 60 watts per bulb is being used....in fact only about 120 spare watts are probably available. Watt management is MUCH more important in Gen I bikes. Groo....spell it with me....D - A - T - E - L. Or use a multimeter temporarily. Second, I'd look to see how well wired your electric gear is. What gauge wires, distance, and any marginal connections? You pirating off existing wires? Electricals....especially ones we've added....are hard to diagnose. [/QUOTE]
