2003 bird. As the title says, I have no power to the gauge until I push the start button. Then, the lights come on but it doesnt crank. As soon as I let go of the button, all lights shut off. I just picked this bike up today and it's my first. I love fixing up vehicles and I wanted to take a...

Hey guys, I've got a problem I've been having for a couple of months now. After about 10 to 15 minutes of riding, my bird gets hot, and then sputters, bogs, and dies on me. I was able to replicate it in my garage and read the voltages. My battery was between 11.8v and 12.1v. When the bike isn't...

Dear All, This dastardly bike is such a bore. I have owned it for less than 3 years and it is (once again) not charging the battery. 5K RPM, 11.2v, new battery etc etc. This will be its 4th stator ring and its 3rd reg rec (yes it has even been hard wired). I think I may fix it once more...

My '03 bird has an issue. No problem on ride for a while but after a break and run again in a short time, the main fuse melts (i mean 30A fuse near battery) I think it doesn't blow (i add picture as an attachement). Where should I to begin to examine? Any idea will be appreciated..

Found this led/button/light-resistor hanging in the steering column, neither factory manual, nor haynes, nor ebay had anything remotely close to that, and the module changes nothing in bird's behaviour. On startup LED displays a "3", and the button can be used to flicker it from 0 to 9...

I installed a voltage readout meter on my 97 Bird. Can someone tell me the best place to get a true reading? Everyone says the headlight wire. I tried that and it doesn't give an accurate reading.

Looking for some help tracking down an issue my bird is having of late. Was on my way back home on a 2900 mile trip and about 300 miles from home my speedometer dropped to zero on me. Having had my stator go out ~6000 miles ago on a previous trip I assumed the worst, and that my charging system...

Hi guys, I've got an issue and would like your valued opinions. I've tried to find a similar fault on here but couldn't see anything the same.
