Engine Earth Strap - Gen 1 Fazer - Running Voltage

[Gaz66]

Thanks Gaz66 - all good advice. Interestingly th manual says to remove the stator. Which setting do I need to multimeter on - 200k?

I should double check the battery too - I've only relied on the bike charging system - so will put on charge.

The FH020A upgrade is tempting - it's not hard to do and I actually have a spare having upgraded my lad's GSR600 and carried a spare for him, plus wiring plug, whilst touring europe.

Thanks but absolutely no alarm thank heavens. My 5JJ R1 did exactly what you described - left me stranded. Luckily, a mate used to install alarms so for £50 he removed the nasty thing. Obvs insurer wanted a little more £££!!!!

Thanks

Depends which meter you have, always good to start in a high range, then bring down the settings till you see a measurable resistance.
Compare values with manual, if you don't have it downloaded, I can find it for you.

Don't forget any component under Ohms test must be disconnected from the bikes loom.

If your insurers make anything of not having an alarm fitted, they're morons & you're insured with the wrong company, alarms don't stop bike thieves, they just throw it in a van & away they go, a good lock & chain will stop 99% of thefts.
