Plz help-----dropped my bike
Hello guys..............
As the title says, i dropped my bike for the first time and hopefully its my last. It was definitely a beginners mistake for me. As i was pulling into the spot, i made a sharp turn and and BOOM the right side of bike is on the ground!!!!!!!!!!!! Even though the lot was narrow, it was still a bad rookie mistake by me.
Now the damage to bike as follow:
- scrape on right side fairing
- right side turn signal reflector lens broke (Easy fix)
- gauge cluster not working 100%----------only thing that's functional is high beam and turn signal on cluster.
The tach needle, digital speedometer, temp and N not working.
Has anyone ever had their cluster not working for any reason? What should i check for besides fuses. Hope i do not need a new gauge cluster.
Thanks

^ there's no "might" about it. Check all the wires around the forks, I'd bet my last dollar you'll find a pinched wire. Since it's only the gauge cluster, that narrows it down to a few wires. Star at the cluster and work your way to the main harness. Pay attention to the color of the wires so that when you get to the connector you know which wires to follow.

anyone around southern nj area can help me out? i took the front piece off to get access to the harness; but i can't seem to find a pinched or a torn wire. i followed the wire back to the fuse and its a black w/yellow thin line. i was going to use my multi-meter which is not working.
help would be appreciated.
thanx again
