Today I was out getting some miles on my sled[98 miles total]riding around at various rpm near the 6000rpm with some bursts over & watchin the speedo so I can get into the next stage when---the speedo blanked out, power went off,It back fired a couple of times and died.. Checked--kill switch-off/all fuses okay/when I tried the starter with the key,there was a click down by the battery[sort of like when you try to start with a nealy dead battery]--/disconnected the TORS and looped them together- nothing. when I got home I checked the battery with a volt meter & it was fully charged. Any ideas--Will be taking it in tomorrow to the dealers-up untill this happened everything was humming like last years RX1, only better ride.

The verdic was... a faulty seleniod which kept the starter engaged which in turn ran down the battery & killed the engine !!!!!!!!!![apparently this was the third warrior with this faulty selenoid & fried starter] Is this an 04 fault? Anyone else hear of this? I didn't hear the starter did not disengage/Iguess it is hard to hear with the engine running, but you can bet I will be paying special att'n from now on.
Anyone hear of this happening this year????
