Easy after lunch project regarding Oxford grips.
« on: December 03, 2016, 01:55:29 PM »
I discovered that the new oxford grips are using a small amount of power all the time, in regards to reading voltage condition.
As a safety measure to prevent flat battery if the bike is parked unused for any length of time, I have fitted an inline switch isolator for the grips, and can now turn them on only when needed.

Sounds like you may have some leakage there. I can leave bike for 3-4 months and starts fine.
