So I paid 300$ (NOT under warranty on a Sunday?)to get my voltage regulator replaced because it kept blowing my headlights.
Go out today and get the damn clicking of death sound on startup.
Plus my damn headlights wont come on,I wiggle the wires n one comes on.
ONLY ONE! and the other WILL NOT come one, checked the bulb n its not blown.
Pull the rubber cups off the back of the lights to have a look n the positive side of the wires are brown n almost melted looking.
WTFF is going on with this crap.
I'm getting real tired of wondering if my american motorcycle is gonna leave me stuck in a parking lot.
My cell is in my truck at my wifes work so I can't call the stealership that did the "work".
Any ideas wtf is going on with my electrical system?

That's a good plan. I hear the techs at import dealers are completely faultless.

If it's a new bike it is covered under warranty plain and simple. EVERYTHING besides like basic maintaince like oil, tires, etc. Just yell and scream if they say no, don't just accept their bullshit of what they say.

Ain't nothing in life plain and simple. Resistance is futile, and worse, wastes good riding days.
