bought this beautiful Red/Yellow specimen, been sitting awhile, but new tires, oils and some TLC had it up and performing to expectations quickly.
It has a factory alarm system, with a key on/off control.
PO said Alarm was turned on, but he had no keys for it.
NO PROBLEM I thought... Until after about 5 months, at 12:30 am it decided to wake up the neighborhood.!
turned on key, alarm went off. Back to bed. 1 hr later HELLO WAKE UP! Key on, no help. started bike, ok silence.
1 hour later, Im awake again. This time nothing helped, had to disconnect the basic engine ground wire to get some sleep.
I have removed the keyed lock, disconnected the wires, Tried it with simply unplugged... still goes off
jumpered the 2 wires together, repeat of same.
Now this is NOT an immediate reaction... sometimes takes 5 min to sound off, some times much as 1 hour.
It has NOT gone off while riding it.
Anyone have thoughts, experience in this?? The actual alarm noise is the horn!
Thanks
