Big thanks to Wired George and his clear instruction on how to do the relay mod and all who have contributed to that forum. I did it last night and it my bike is completely different. A few years ago I had upgraded to a dyna coil and ignition system. It helped but I still had a lot of issue. Now it a mean machine. I still need to do rings thought I'm burning through A LOT of oil about .5L per 200KM ouch.

It is easier to say what I haven't replaced then what I have.

I have a bike that had 7.5 volts before the mod. I installed the relay and got good voltage. I then replace the wiring harness and it had good voltage. I'll save the relay and wires for the next voltage challenged wiring harness. Roy

... EXACTLY... Yes indeed! ;)

In most cases, conductor to switch re-soldering/switch contact cleaner and lubrication will correct this....

I know, I know.... I'll shut up now..... :laugh:

When I first saw this post I thought it might be some kind of name calling post with the possibility of an argument to follow. I'm glad to see it's not. :)
Just so there is no confusion, I edited your spelling for you.
