I’m still not super good at this forum thing but here’s and update and a new problem, so frank here has his lights finally working, the fire blade front end only has the two headlights so I moved the hi beam wire to the inner light socket and got the go low functioning, I used a 5 post starter relay to delete most of the headlight wires and all that crap, so I got all my wires tucked and all I wanted was a first cruise since I got the body back together, well my battery was low and I had to jump it to get it running, let it run for a min and then hopped on, revved good and sounded go so I went to take off made it half way down the drive way and it died, so I pushed it back up, jumped it, let it run tried to get it to do it agian and nothing, so okay stay close to the shop and keep it short, made it farther this time all the way to the road and as soon as I started to turn onto the road and take off it died, now the lights stay on and I can try and crank it didn’t fire cuz my battery was still weak, cranking but cranking slowly. Now I’m guessing 2 things the weak battery not being strong enough to fire the engine under load/charging system is weak, or the tip over sensor (I’ve just kinda squished it behind my dash and I’m pretty sure it’s not right side up) but I’ve messed with it some while the bike is running and it dosnt seem to do anything “before today’s issues” does anyone have any input? Sorry for the long winded post! The bike is an 07 vfr800, I’m all for deleting as much as I can, so I think that tip over is gunna be the first to go, I’ll delete the kickstand switch too as I’ve just realized while writing this that it could be a problem with the kickstand isn’t contacting the switch completely because of the new fairings, I did have some issues with fitting around kickstands
