Hi, took the bike out for a ride last night in the wet weather and experienced a few intermittent problems.

As I was riding at around a constant 70mph the battery light started to glow very dimly which I thought would mean I was getting a poor connection so I pulled over at the services to find my indicators either stayed on or flashed erratically. I checked the connections including the battery but everything seemed to be dry.

My other problem was again around 70ish I dropped down a gear to overtake and found the bike struggled to climb past 6k revs.

Both problems only happened once or twice on a 2 hour+ run. Does anyone else experience these problems? Is there a way of preventing it?

Cheers, Iain
