While on my way home from work tonight i noticed my engine and battery light was on . My volt meter was down on voltage around 10 to 11 volts . When i got home i checked my oil , it was fine . Pulled the seat off and put a meter to the battery and had 13,4 volts. Started the bike up after cleaning the battery terminals . Had 14.2 or so.
Rode it around alittle bit and the lights went away . Rode it again and they came back on . Will call stealer tommorrow and see what they have to say . Still under warrenty .
how old is the battery? Can you add distilled water to it or is it sealed?
Need more details on the year, make and model. If it's a Honda, your on the wrong forum. 8-)
Voltage regulator going bad? Could you possibly have a bike effected by the voltage regulator recall?

Could have been a loose cable ... or could be the regulator or stator getting ready to take a crap. It may have thrown a code when it happened, if so ... the dealer will be able to check it.
