africa twin problems….
africa twin problems….
out for a spin with the midwestern lads today on my 1991 RD04 africa twin and the following happened….
after about 60 miles she dropped a cyl for a minute along with the rev counter not working, then the cyl came back, still no rev counter, then back onto 1 cyl then cut out altogether. charging voltage with lights on was a steady 14.7v turn the lights off and 14.3v now it used to go up and down when running but today it was a constant reading. funny burning smell from under the seat as well. she’ll spin over real fast, lights work indicators work etc etc just she won’t fire at all. any ideas?
