ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
05/26/201258000
 Riding in western virginia, on a warm saturday afternoon, i noticed my turn signal indicator lights were both on, and flashed weirdly when i used them. i also lost the electric adjustable windshield, and discovered when i stopped that i had no headlights. this was painful because the ride i was on involved a lot of night time riding. luckily this happened during the day and i was able to use my auxiliary lights that night. upon dis-assembly, a ground spider (s6) under the nose of the bike, not covered or inspected by the current recall was burned to a crisp. this would have been really really bad had i lost my lights at speed, at night on a twisty mountain road.
