Not sure why these two things seem to be connected on my FZ6s1 (2007) but it's happened twice now:
- Orange light comes on imtermittently when driving slow, idling, or stopping/starting etc (it's the light just above the Neutral LED on the old style clock with the digital rev gauge - not the analog gauge like the S2 has)
- Bike battery dies
- first time this happened I could still get lights to come on when turn the key, but not enough juice for ignition to work. Ignitions attempts would make the bike die each time
- second time it happened was after installing heated grips (but they're NOT wired the way that could drain the battery when bike is off - we used the relay and they cannot operate until bike is on)
- this time the lights don't even come on when I turn the key
Any ideas what the orange light is about in this situation? I know the battery may be straightforward
