While not wanting to deprive a motorcycle dealer of their obviously
well-earned profits, I *would* like to suggest that you have a
look-see at the battery terminals first. If they are corroded or loose
at all, the bike won't start, the lights may not come on, and any
lighting you *do* get will go out and stay out when you engage the
electric leg. I had that happen to my Sprint, and a bit of work with a
screwdriver, a scrap of emery cloth, and a fingertip full of wheel
bearing grease sorted it out quite nicely.
