Check your battery connection make sure its tight. I had the same problem on mine one time. Went through the wiring harness and everything, turned out that I forgot to tighten the Battery cables. Simple as that.
When mine got ripped off I had that problem. It was in the harness. One of the contacts inside was slightly bent (from being hotwired). Everytime the bars went left, it would push it slightly and the I'd lose all power. Disconcerting.

I tried futzing with the relay and I can't get the bike to lose power.   Undecided  So maybe it's a bent wire somewhere.  Very disconcerting, indeed.  I'm gonna steal Enzo's relay when he's out of town and see if that fixes the problem--just to try it.   Grin

All right--back to mocking enginerds.

Try bending / pulling the harness connector under the frame at the head?

Ahh ya. +1

I had this same thing without it get stolen.  My monster was pinching a wire every time I turned the bars. It was an ultra-quick fix once I found it.

(FYI:  most vibrators are waterproof, so that's not really anything special.  That's just what I've heard....  Grin)

Yeah but.....not to three hundred feet. I guess if you need to go skin diving and get your jollies.....then you're now all set?


Forget who would design such a thing-why would Eric need one?  Tongue

Sorry to break the news, but it's rated underwater only for 1 meter. Maybe Desmostro is thinking 300 mm.  laughingdp
