cleaning.
3. If loss of power is experienced after bumps it is most likely to be a
connection.
Check the battery contacts and ensure they are clean and making
good contact.
Check the ignition to see if it is faulty by wiggling the key. N.B. It is
not a good idea to hang lots of keys from the ignition because the
weight will cause rapid and excessive wear.
5. Check that the fuse holders are secure.
6. Completely discharge and recharge the battery twice. This is the least
likely scenario but it is a required fault check.
7. When the power cuts out test the voltage across the battery terminals
using a multimeter and call us with this information.
Problem: Battery not Charging
1. Check if the charger is working...if no light check the plug fuse on
the charger
2. Are you connecting the charger in the right order (see charging the
battery).
3. Check the input (5Amp) fuse on the battery.
4. If you have a multimeter check the voltage across the battery
terminals. If it is below 20Volts the charger may not be able to start
charging and the battery may be damaged.
Problem: Not Giving Full Range
1. Ranges can vary dramatically from customer to customer under
different riding conditions.
2. Your bike may have an adjustable power/range setting on the
controller, this may need to be changed if you require a longer range.
3. Hills and loads over 90Kgs reduces the range significantly.
4. Please check the brakes are correctly set-up i.e. not rubbing and the
tyres are correctly inflated...usually 50 to 60 psi – this is the number
one cause of reduced range.
5. If you are using the throttle to build momentum you put a huge strain
on the motor, controller and battery and this will evaporate your
