Freerider, how diid you leave your lights on? I'm assuming you used your kill switch? If so, try to refrain from using it unless it is an emergency. I never use mine for daily operation. If not, disregard. Also, I think you will find this forum to be a very informitive place for answers. There are many seasoned riders, Mechanics and generally well informed people here.

Thanks for explaining thing around here to the guy. Here is what he response to my post
Do me favor cream puff, dont ever answer anything I post again.
Save your drama for someone that deserves it.
He shouldn't loudly swear when asking for help.

Default Good Advice and some Drama Queen

"Daily" you are correct I did use my kill switch and thats exactly how I drained my battery. Since then I have not used it. I did lear alot when it comes to these newer bikes about how much they depend on proper levles of electronics thoughout the bike. Turns out that since my batter was low some of the sensors were not level, but that all went away after I rode the bike for about 40 minutes. I also picked up a Battery Tender as well to keep it charged over the winter.

"Jack"
If you dont have anything but drama then just go away please. Your last post really reminds me of what a woman would do. Get over it.
