Author Message   Cgent Posted on Friday, July 16, 2010 - 09:24 am:        I may have found the reason for my speedometer / odometer problems. Also the headlight at night seems to go from VERY BRIGHT to VERY DIM ... back & forth. I checked the battery & charging system ... charging at as high as 18.3 volts at road speed ... 15 to 17 volts at idle. Seems way too much ... replace voltage regulator ???   Cgent Posted on Friday, July 16, 2010 - 09:31 am:        P.S. ... forgot to mention ... headlight is AWESOME at 18 volts !!! ... starter turns pretty powerfully too !!!   Gearheaderiko Posted on Friday, July 16, 2010 - 10:16 am:        Yes, voltage regulator!   Swampy Posted on Friday, July 16, 2010 - 12:40 pm:        Before you do that check and clean all of the connections, and the battery and the grounds and the ground straps.   Ezblast Posted on Friday, July 16, 2010 - 01:20 pm:        Concur!
