More electrical fun! Dimming lights?
 

Hi All

Need some quick suggestions - my lights dim ever so slightly when I give the bike throttle, and then brighten up again the minute its sat back down at idle!?!? The difference is noticeable when parked up against a wall if your looking for it, not noticeable when riding.. Even so - its meant to be the other way around!!

Only conclusion I could draw was:

Dodgey wiring
Wrong wattage bulbs
Conked alternator

Have replaced the reg/rec and this has fixed my charging issue, just gotta fix this and she will be like new :D

Ideas please :)

Thanks

You sometimes get dimming as the regulator kicks in as the voltage rises.

Check the charging rate with a multimeter and if it is within limits don't worry about it.

Chris - that makes perfect sense. Gonna go out and get some brighter bulbs - I did a whole trip home on full beam last night and didnt get flashed once :S
