Hi all,
I was recently doing a little work on my 2014 Street Triple R, added new rear turn signals, and when I went to start my bike it turned over, ran for a second or two then quit. I hit the starter button again and same happened. I cycled the key and tried again and nothing, didn't turn over at all, but the odd thing was my headlight was on right when I turned the key on, but it's usually out until the bike starts? Anyways I cycled the key again, this time I removed the key and let it sit for a minute, and it started right up like a champ! The next day I hopped on it to go to work, started fine, I got a couple blocks away and noticed the CEL was on. Went home, swapped for my car and went to work. Came home that night after doing some reading on the subject and ran it a couple times and the CEL went out. I figured it was all good, so I went on a short ride to a friends and when I got ready to leave, turn the key, headlight on, no fuel injection priming noise and starter button does nothing. Cycled key, let it set and it started right up. Thought maybe while I was playing electrician I wore down the battery and freaked the system out, so I stuck it on my battery tender, it reached full charge in less than maybe 10 minutes. Today I started and ran it 4-5 more times without issue. As far as my electrical work all I did was solder stock signal plugs to new lights and then plugged them in, I didn't tamper with factory harness at all. I've order a Dealertool, but it won't be here for a few days. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Dan
