True that. Alright have bought some new bits and bobs, put them on and connected them up and still no joy. Wire loom ECU Ignition switch Instrument cluster And nothing YET. I am at a loss atm because anything wrong with the old wire loom I'd have thought would be fixed with the new one, however it only seems to have made things a little worse which is strange because everything is connected up as and where they should be. For some reason now the horn button only makes the left indicator light up but not flash, yet on the instrument cluster the indicator plus the neutral lights are flashing and I've a good thought on what could be causing that and before anyone says it yes I have checked the cables, yes I have checked the connections and they are fine.

It's a Lexmoto Venom 125. Wouldn't have thought it to be a dodgy earth and so it seems the battery holds the charge fine if I try to start the bike remotely, just not when using the push start. Will have a look through all of the connections, and check the battery again with a multimeter and see what is happening later on.

Recently I have been having issues with regard to the instrument cluster as nothing lights up other than the neutral light, now the bike does start and run as normal before anyone asks ^^ Issues already marked off the list / fixed... 1) Ignition switch was faulty so took that off and had to clean the contacts as they were corroded to hell, tested afterward and working fine. 2) Bought a new instrument cluster and tested the old one, both do work fine after testing however there is a faulty fuel gauge on the old one (Neither work when connected to the harness). 3) Fuses checked and are fine Current issues... 1) Instrument cluster isn't working when the ignition is on, the only light that shows on the display is the neutral light and not even the speedo needle moves either it just remains at 0 MPH. 2) Recently found the push start to be draining the battery, what could be going on there? (Had this issue since it all started, luckily I have a remote start / alarm / immobiliser installed on the bike of which works fine) A while ago and I am talking about 2-3 weeks ago I took the bike off the road to get the rear break caliper sorted as I got a replacement for it and fitted that onto the bike with new pads. I then went to start the bike and got no joy as the battery went flat due to the cold weather (Bare in mind I don't have a garage), so I took the battery off to charge it however when trying to start the bike everything was working fine electrical wise beforehand yet whilst trying to start it the speedo needle got stuck at 80 MPH and the lights started flashing red on the old instrument panel. So I thought there was an issue with the instrument panel itself and bought a new one then fitted and connected it up when it arrived, I then turned the ignition on and got nothing on the instrument panel other than the neutral light until I turned the steering to the right because my father was doing something and when I turned it back to centre the instrument panel all lit up, the speedo needle did the up then down thing so I know that it worked, but only briefly. Since then it hasn't worked even though the instrument panel itself when disconnected and tested off the bike, does work fine so I know the issue lies with the wiring on the bike maybe even with the loom however I do not see any issues with the harness itself as all of the connections and wires seem fine. I did notice again that the push start button is draining the battery and don't know why because it were fully charged one minute and as soon as I pressed the push start button it tried to start but the battery ran out of juice, and I held it for a second and no longer. Knowing that being an issue, what else is connected to the push start and runs in sequence when using the electric start? Has anyone had this issue before with their bike?

Numerous forums and or communities are like this where their users who would post constantly all of a sudden go quiet, no it doesn't mean that they have been abducted it just means that whatever they have going on it be more important than the forum or community IE LIFE! Zod went quiet for a year...Just like a boomerang, Zod came back...

Well you know... All of that probing they did were no good to them what so ever because I guess it never satisfied them in the way they'd have thought it would. Eventually they got fed up and abducted someone else having left me in some desolate area. And blah blah blah

Unfortunately no. The mothership spat me out a long time ago! And well not been up to much other than being in and out of work, planning on doing the full test and having that back firing on me. And so on, passed the theory first attempt and hoping now to do the full test and move up to a bigger bike now by Oct...

Some of you may remember me, some might not...It has been well over a year since I were last on here.

I'll sort that out when the time comes. Not in any hurry to jump from a 125 to a bigger bike so will put some money away for it and get one when I can ^^

Got a Lexmoto Ranger 125. Will be 24 Wednesday so will get the Theory test booked and then if I pass that I'll book Mod1/2 so fingers crossed.

Lulz. "Now I must say that a dear old friend of mine joined up to a dating site the other week...It wasn't long before that he was bragging to the entire work force about how much he hated such site and would never sign up to one. Well, he did and instantly had about fifty odd messages from single women all in his area which he later bragged about at work. Apparently all of these women were either up for chat, up for meet ups, up for some flirtatious fun or up for sex and the married man that he is had requested to meet up with them all. Only one reply was given...By someone without a picture. A week later he goes to the meeting place when an hour or so after he's surprised to see his wife walking in his direction... Oi, where are you off to? He asks when she replies that she's there to meet up with a friend. Coincidence he said, I'm here for the same thing and so they agreed to wait together for their apparent online buddies to turn up. Yet they never did. Going online as soon as they got home both had a message in their inbox on the dating site... One read. I was at the meet location and sat there for three hours waiting for you to show up and you never did, thank you very much. While the other read. I was also at the meet location and sat there for three hours awaiting your arrival but you never turned up, why was this? Ten minutes later my friend replies...So we were both there waiting for each other. You have my phone number, and I have yours. I phoned you twice but got no answer so I sent you text messages but still got no answer. (Hearing a the faint sound of text messages being received on his wife's phone downstairs) To where after reading that his wife shouts up the stairs...I KNOW MY PHONE WAS OFF!!!!"

NOTD goes to the HGV driver on the dual carriage going past park Penllergaer heading toward Fforestfach who without even looking and nor indicating started shifting into the right lane when I'm near the front end of the trailer, quick check of the mirrors and a quick life saver, cannot slow down and drop back because there is scaffold wagon more or less directly behind. Short blast of the horn (twice) the driver looks in the mirror and shifts back into the left lane. Second NOTD goes to the female driver of an Astra who wasn't looking right at the roundabout in Cwmbwrla wasn't slowing down and nor stopping, drove straight on cutting across the lane forcing other traffic to slam on their brakes.

Nob of the day? Me. A suicidal but lazy cat was sleeping on the seat...Pushed it off because the shit wouldn't move and just as I started rolling out of the driveway without realizing it jumps back on and just sits there. Got to the end of the road before I noticed that the fur ball was there...

Nob of the day goes to the douchebag in a corsa who flew around a blind bend on the wrong side of the road almost knocking another biker off. Lucky I had pulled up at the kurb...Started having headlight issues.
