I'v got some electic problems, IE brake lites. Nether the front or rear are working. The blub is new, wires seem tight, checked the fuses.

I'm too far from Ft Lauderdale to directly answer your question.  However, you may want to ask for assistance on the FL board.  You can post your question here:

I'm somewhat new to Valks myself, but I seem to recall that a few members are in that general area.  They may be able to provide help with your issue and if not, recommend a good shop.

Best of luck.

Hi, Thanks I just did. I have been using one shop but he is a little sloppy. Somethings don't get retightened, or there not put back on. Get home and find parts in the saddle bage that should have been put back. Looking for someone new.
Thanks again,

before paying someone, Id check the connectors around the rear fender area.  The one that connects the two fenders together and the ones going to the trunk.  Id suspect loose and or dirty connectors if its not a fuse.  I assume you checked fuses already

Hi Tank,
No I did not know that, heck yea will knok several back! Give me a call, I left you my number on your cell. You know I have been having back problems, so riding has been on a must do list only when I have to. Heck it hurts to drive the truck, but I got plenty of beer in the garage in the man fridge.

For everyone else, I have every light on the rear of the bike, and Have not wired in the trunk yet, before I could someone told me I had no brake light so I have held of till I can figure out what the problem is.
