I asked a different forum and someone recommended the same thing as you, using a trailer wiring module. I used one of there (Tail Light Trailer Towing Wiring Converter (5 wires to 4 wires) DRAW TITE 120194 119130, 118187 119130, 118187) when I converted the old filament bulbs to LED lights...

Hi guys, I have a givi top case (v46) and I want to add LED strips for the brake and turn signals. I’ve already added 2 bottom LED strips for the brake light. Now, I want to add 3 addition LED strips on the top that will act as a brake light, but I also want them to flash when I turn...

Will certainly do :)

At the moment, I'm checking voltage through the VR connector. All I have to do is remove the seat. FinalImpact, In my quick search i found this thread (http://www.600riders.com/forum/fz6-mods/51988-cheap-ebay-voltmeter-installation.html). I'll definitely be doing this, exactly what I'm...

It makes complete sense. I've learned SO much about the FZ charging system and will be more conscience of how much power I use with the heated gear. Thank you FinalImpact, TownsendsFJR1300, and Motogiro for lending me your knowledge. I'll be keeping an eye on the voltage and possibly add a...

Unplugging the head light did nothing, HOWEVER, i just checked the voltage and it reached 14.07v at 5k rpm....So is this what you're referring to as "stabilizing the battery"? I picked up the battery this morning at 10:30... I guessed I jumped the gun claiming it was the VR fault.

I noticed that anything over 2k rpm, the voltmeter reads 13.79v. It's as if it hit a ceiling...I thought the my voltmeter froze for a second. First thing I did back on Saturday was check the 3 white wire stator connector, and the VR connector and fuses. both connectors looked clean, no...

Ok, so now I'm quite positive that the voltage reg is the issue. I got my hand on a new battery reading 13.54v at rest. I connected it to the bike and started it. At first, the battery voltage started going up by increments of .01v...I thought all is well. So I revved the engine to 5k rpm...

Cool, the previous owner must have done this mod since that's how it is on my bike. Even though I can't say how well a single light illuminates the road at night compared to a dual setup, having the dual light is nice when most of my riding is done at night coming back from school at 10pm...

Wait, I thought all S2 FZ6's have both headlights turn on from factory? I guess mine are modified as well?

That's interesting, I'll keep that in mind. Well then, that’s some great info. So this all means that I only have roughly ~63 watts to play with and I was exceeding that by 77 watts running 105 watt jacket. I will be using the jacket on 60 watts and do what TownsendsFJR1300 suggested to...

That's funny, I bought his exhaust he was selling (ridiculously well packaged). I'll send him a msg. I read that post in my search, I'll give it another read when I get the battery back. I dropped both batteries (old one replaced last week and the new one) at the parts store and will pick...

do'h, I assumed everyone knew my numbers... My battery was pretty much doing the inverse of your battery. With the ignition off, it reads 12.2v, once I start the bike, the voltage goes down by increments of .01v. I revved the engine to 5k rpm and held it for 10 seconds with the highest...

Hi guys, I’m having charging issues and I’m looking for advice. I bought a new battery on Monday Sept. 15, and it died on Friday Sept. 19. Today, I checked the stator and was getting .3 to .4 ohms and 0 ohms back to ground (good). Now when I checked the r/r according to this video...

I was in an accident 5 years ago and was charged with an at fault when it wasn't the case. Since then I decided to buy a gopro and used it for when I go to track days and doubles as a dash cam. I didn't like the idea of attaching the gopro to my helmet so I found a place on the bike where it...
