#22270 davemcconville (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 23 BAK arrived, installed, then disaster 5 Years, 1 Month ago   I insatlled by BAK (and jets) last night. All was well, the start up was great this morning. On my way to work I lost all power, no siganl, no speedo, no nothing! As I he pulled up to show my badge, the bike stalled. I managed to get a jump but it was clear the bike was running off the battery and not the alternator. I dropped it off at the stealership (no option). Very, very strange.

Pinched a wire.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #22274 WhiteStarNC (User) Expert Boarder Posts: 426 Re:BAK arrived, installed, then disaster 5 Years, 1 Month ago   Even if you plugged them back, I have always found one of the two connectors an absolute bitch to pull apart - may have pulled a wire out of the connector. I always worry about getting everything back together correctly. I do however now have a nice collection of parts that obviously were not needed in the first place.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #22275 Musky (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 15137 Re:BAK arrived, installed, then disaster 5 Years, 1 Month ago   Just for future reference. You don't need to uplug them. Lay a towell over your bars and lay the dash with wires connected on the bars.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #22277 WhiteStarNC (User) Expert Boarder Posts: 426 Re:BAK arrived, installed, then disaster 5 Years, 1 Month ago   Good point - I am a big fan of putting towels over parts anytime I work on the bike - one tool slip = 1 scratch.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #22301 Curt (Moderator) Never to old to ride!
