Hi Ted,

are the battery terminals done up tight?

Other than that, check to see if you have trapped wire or something? does it make any difference if you move the steering?

:plus:
On anything that might have been moved/ knocked while changing the battery.
My negative term came very slightly loose, bike still ran fine but I lost power to the satnav, 2 further turns down and all was well!
Fingers crossed it's a simple fix! :up:
