I noticed that , at night, when I'm riding at cruising speed the battery lamp is glowing dimly. Is that something to worry about?
Also,
once in a while when I accelerate from a stop, the bike hesitates for a second. It feels as if someone cut the engine off just for a second.
No other indication on the instruments. Just a kind of buck and loss of power, then all goes back to normal.
The battery seems OK and I have a new ground cable.
Any help?
85 K100RT. Speedo shows 28,000 (but who knows for real.)
Also, should I consider checking the valve clearance?
Some say it doesn't change till much higher mileage.
