Went out this morning to take the Daytona to work, turned the ignition on and nothing happened - at all.
It's been about 4-5 days since I have ridden, so I figure that maybe the radar detector was left on, key was maybe in "Park", or alarm drained it. I grabbed the cables and jump-started it from my truck batter (truck not running). The bike fired to life, but after I disconnected the cables I noticed 2 things: 1 - the engine light is on, and 2 - when I rev the engine the digital display gets all funky - displaying all 888's. When the bike goes back to idle the display becomes normal again. Any idea if a "flat" battery will cause this, or do I have an alternator or ground problem?
I have the battery on a slow charge today and will install it tonight to see if it cures the anomolies. I'm worried that if I take it to the dealer for electrical issues they will not cover it under warranty because of the after-market alarm and spliced in radar detector.
Hope it is something simple!
