Xbandito Posted April 2, 2011 Posted April 2, 2011 Coming home from dialysis last night and all the electrics went off, lights, dash, everything. Then within 2or 3 seconds, it seemed to reboot and everything came back on, the dash had "RD" flash up for awhile while it rebooted. Scared the c@@p out of me, dark "b" roads approaching a bend.Checked battery terminals etc, they seem fine.It is a Derbi terra 125, 3 months old, already blown side stand sensor, exhaust rusted, anything metal is badly corroded and that is after the day I got it, I sprayed it with ACF, now I have been told by the dealer to spray it with wd40...everywhere which is what he did whilst bypassing the side stand sensor, he covered the bike in wd40.......this wont have done anything to cause the above...would it ?

eastanglianbiker Posted April 2, 2011 Posted April 2, 2011 surely the side stand sensor should be replaced as the bike is only 3 months old Quote
Xbandito Posted April 2, 2011 Author Posted April 2, 2011 Yes it will but they said 5 to 7 days to get it, that was 10 days ago Just been out on a 20 mile run and nothing happened, so hopefully it was a one off. Quote
Roadtorque Posted April 4, 2011 Posted April 4, 2011 Have a word with the dealer that sold it to you,, tell him what happened & find out what RD means,,,,, can you really feel safe riding at night if the electrics are liable to drop out ?????????? Quote
