Has it always been this way since you have had the bike? Have you done something to maybe cause this? Give all the info you know and maybe we can pin point the problem.

I needed plate lights because my undertail did not have one so I got plate bolts with LED's in them for like 10 bucks on ebay, they are really bright and get the job done, hope this helped.
