I have a 1979 honda cb125t2 its mint and has only done 6000 miles. Problem is the lighting dims when using indicators. It has a brand new wiring harness. The lights dim wether the bike is at rest or on the road so cant really use it at night earth contacts are clean. Any ideas

Has it got a 6 or 12 volt electrical system, if it is a 6v system check to see if the bulbs are 6 or 12 volt Thumbs Up

How's the battery? In good condition, holding charge well? What's the resting voltage like?

I read somewhere that poor earth connections cause this. Check them
