I have searched for an answer before posting without success, so I apologise if there is one that I missed.
The last ride I did on the bike covered about 7000km in just over a week. For about half the trip I noticed that the TCS & ABS light were constantly on. My dash lights and tail lights would drop out for extended periods also. The biggest concern was that the volt meter I have installed showed up 15.7v at some points. I also had intermittent starting issues, where there was no kick when pressing starter button, which I believe has been fixed by removing an extra cable form the positive terminal and getting a better connection.
I went through all connections relating to the alt and rectifier as per workshop manual without any error readings.
The bike has around 115 000km on it, and sat for two years before I got it about 18 months ago. When I picked it up it had 93 000km on it, so I have added around 20 000km in the 18 months, and a few extra FARKLEs which I have had somebody calculate the watts and I am within safe limits apparently, with extra to spare for the bike to use if required.
With the readings I am getting I am of the opinion that the VRR is on the way out, but I am open to suggestions from the wealth of knowledge here. Before I start spending big dollars at the dealer any suggestions would be great fully accepted to check.
Thanks in advance to the knowledge trust.
