So I got my Baja Designs kit and got everything on no problem.
Well, I lied. I broke the banjo bolt for the brakes so I need to get another :p I think I will order two and put a switch on the front and back.
Everything is working. I went for a quick ride and after 5 minutes the lights went super dim, I thought it was just running off the battery and not charging. But after I went for a daytime ride today, I noticed the battery had charged.
So heres my question. I didn't change my stator not convert to a floating ground system. The battery is charging off the bike and all the lights work, but when the battery goes flat the lights get dimmer, and dimmer.
I was hoping to put off a new stator for a while. Would rewiring to a floating ground make the lights any brighter? or am I just going to have to get a new stator?
I was told the kit wouldn't work with out a floating ground but mine seems to be working.
Also, I quickly tried to bleed the brakes and I had no luck. I was getting no pressure what so ever. How long should I have to pump the brake for? Or did I put something back together wrong maybe?
cliffs:
- put on baja designs kit
- using stock stator for now
- didn't convert to floating ground
- kit works, but not bright at all
- is this because of floating ground or simply stator
- brakes don't seem to be bleeding, does it take longer than 15 mins before you notice some pressure? or did I screw things up
