Greetings
Hello everyone,
I just signed up to receive the ST digest and wanted to introduce myself. I
live in Seattle, WA and my ride is a black '99 Sprint ST I purchased (well,
am in the process of purchasing...) in August of '99. It has 7,000 miles on
it now and is a sweet ride. For accessories I've got the matching panniers
(no top box... yet...), heated grips (how did I ever live without them?),
Gen-Mar bar risers, Throttlemiester throttle lock, and the CF tank pad.
With the wet roads around here, I am looking to get the hugger and a taller
windscreen (has anyone tried the Zerogravity screens with the ST?).
I've been riding since '92, and am certainly no expert on motorcycles. I
just like to ride (traveling and commuting) and learn what I can. If I can
contribute anything of value, I'll throw it out and see if it floats.
Now I've got a question or two for y'all. I finally got the BMW adapter for
my electric vest (Aerostitch Unobtainium with HeatTroller). I fired it up
recently just to work and back (15 miles each way) to make sure everything
worked. It did, and I was nice and toasty. Unfortunately, the next morning
the battery didn't have enough juice to start the bike. I'm trying to
figure out where the problem might be. Unfortunately, I now very little
about electrical systems :-(, but am willing to learn.
On a related note, when I turn off the engine after a ride, the fan starts
up and runs for a few minutes (must be 2 or 3 mins). Is this normal for the
ST? Or could this be contributing to the charging issue?
Thanks much!
Regards,
Randal Smith
