I have 1998 model and have installed the light mod. It looks much better, but after a week or so the battery goes flat. I thought battery was problem as it was drained few times last year so I bought a new one, which worked awesome for a week or so, and then it went flat today. I charged it now and measured the fallowing
Battery alone 15min after charging 13.3 V
Battery connected to system, engine off 13.25 V (i have scorpio alarm directly connected to the battery for two years, never problems so far. Alarm charges when engine is running [that is what they say])
engine idling 14.14 V with lights off, 14.25 on 5000rpms with lights off
lights on (with mod) 12.72 idling (and looks like it is going down slowly), 13.42 on 5000rpms
I did drive A LOT this week on very low rpms, more then 200km at idle or around 2000 rpms as I was practicing a on school parking space. I also drove a lot in the slow traffic with low rpms.
I am thinking to disconnect the mod in the weekend in order to test the new battery, just to confirm that it drives nice after f.eks. a month.
Did anyone experienced something similar with the light mod? Or could it be that by driving on low rpms, the battery took the hit?
125 miles at 2000rpm........i presume you have a blue red bike? :lol
