1994 Ducati m900
Ugh. Electrical. I hate electrical.
This bike has been sitting. Like, for YEARS sitting while it gets redone. It's been one ridiculous thing after another. I'm a little over it.
Then, I rode it last weekend. Charged up the relatively new battery and went for a ride. Damn but I love this bike. It's angry, it's strange, it's LOUD... damn but I love this bike.
But, it has a problem, and I'm hoping y'all have another idea of what is wrong rather than what I suspect is wrong.
Symptom: Battery light stays on the entire ride. If I don't put the Battery Tender on the bike overnight the battery was dead the next morning.
My solution: Get a new battery.
Charged it. Went for a long ride. Battery light still stayed on the entire ride. Put the bike on the Tender after the ride [now a habit, as I don't know when I'm going to get back on it again] - light on Tender is red... takes a while [hours] to go to green.
Problem not fixed.
VERY simple bike on an electrical scale. No turn signals, no fancy schmancy computer, just a simple harness with 1993 Ducati technology.
Ideas?
