Immobilliser Cut in at 50mph! Problems?

Well it is a H*nda, of course it's going to break down.

If it's in warranty, if it IS a reg/rec, it should be replaced. It's not really a "disposable" item such as a chain or tyres, etc.

H*ndas use a powerful alternator as they're wound differently to the suzuki ones. Hence why the alternators strong enough to run an SV for ages are considered a weak spot on the C*Rs.

Have you got a multimeter?

Yeah I do have a multi-meter. Actually have a rough idea how to use it today too!

That's handy

Complete alarm replacement, need to check the battery though and ensure it is working correctly.

What's the best way to check?

Multimeter to see if volts are present and going in and ampmeter what evr thingy to see if its got and getting amps

Or some one might have a battery tester

[yorkie_chris]

Multimeter on 20VDC scale.

Put across battery. Engine running, 5k rpm, lights on, should show 13.5-14.5v

Bring your bike and Voltmeter to Soho tonight and we'll show you

Don't have it with me SK otherwise that is exactly what I'd do. I'm really keen to get the bike sorted with no nagging doubt before attempting brands.

Bring the bike - I'll head home and grab my meter.

In fact that would work - if you follow the A2 into London, then take the A202 you pretty much go past my door.

Or we can work something else out meeting wise.
