In Need Of Electrical Help

Just bought my first Triumph a week ago, 2006 T100. Installed a pair of used Hyde Togas last evening. Tried to start the bike but all electric shut off when I hit the starter button. All the fuses looked good. Tried to start the bike again this morning. All the lights turned on when I turned on the ignition but all the electric again shut off when I hit the starter button.

Since the electric returned over night, I've concluded that there must be a circuit breaker involved.

I also noticed when replacing the stock silencers that the rubber cushioned kickstand stop is replaced by a metal bracket. There looks to be a switch on the kickstand.

Sure hope one of you can help with a solution. I will appreciate all opinions on the problem.

Thanks,

 

MadMrB led me right to the problem. Not really a "knackered battery" but knackered battery terminal connections.

Battery had a full charge so I cleaned what looked to be clean terminals. That's all it took.

I live in Ohio where the temps are above average this week and I can finally get a good ride on my new Bonnie.

Never heard the word "knackered" . Sounds like it covers a lot of ground.

Thanks for the help fellows.

 

And to think I didn't have this very useful word in my vocabulary for 70 years.
Thanks again fellows.
