Hi all, as above, none of my electrics are working except my headlight. It has a spark and starts, but no brake lights, nothing. Just headlight working.

No N light on the clocks, no temperate gauge, nothing.

I've checked the fuse, it's fine. I'm running out of ideas.

Thanks in advance for the help. Very Happy

Was it like that when you got it, or did you discover it after a period of storage, or did it suddenly happen on a ride?

I'm sure there's more than one fuse though - does it mention them in the manual?

It's my daily rider. Went out for a ride, midway through I noticed my temperature gauge had gone down to nothing, then my N light wasn't working. And then I realised my indicators and brake light had stopped working.

As far as I'm aware there's only a main fuse.

According to the Wiring Diagram, there is indeed only one fuse -so check for loose, broken or damaged wires, loose or corroded connectors.

Charges fine off the bike when riding. But the brake light should work off the engine anyway. I've blown fuses before and everything worked fine off the engine except the indicators.

I'll investigate the loom properly soon. I suspect it's the wires to the rear brake shorting somewhere.
