Thanks for all the replies - I'm back on the road again !

I think I found the problem. While looking for the alternator connector noticed a burn mark on the ground wire for the motronics unit. Replaced the wire and now getting readings of:

I had the key switch in the far left position, which I believe is the park position. (key cannot be removed)

I moved the switch to the middle position (key can be removed), getting the same reading ...

Odd, I only have 3 positions on my ignition switch.

I have the wiring diagram but which fuse serves which function? Its not marked in the diagram?

With key off to the far left:

I read somewhere If I use a voltmeter on amp setting, with one meter probe on the negative post and the other on the ground cable I can measure the amp draw. Removing one fuse at a time I can see whi ...

Put a new battery in a week ago, and within days the battery is dead with the key off. Don't think the clock would draw much power but something is draining the battery. Where do I start to look?

Found the relay boxes under the fuel tank but where is the fuse box?

I gave my 97 K1100 to my son-in-law last year and the bike ran great for him, until this spring when he took it out of storage.

He put in a new battery (it was needed) and hooked up the battery ch ...

Thanks, lots of reading to do !!!

Since I got the bike in the spring the ABS lights constantly flash, although the brakes work fine. Hitting the reset will turn them off for a few minutes but they always come back on.

Where do I s ...

Is there a way to test the windshield operation with it removed from the bike?

Thanks for all the input - a little more muscle hitting them and they popped right off.

This is as far as I went hitting it. I don't think this is the way if comes off??

Picked up a damaged K1100 fairing at a flea market. Mirrors are in better condition than mine. Problem is can't remove the mirrors from the damaged fairing. The nuts just spin - is there a secret t ...

Dummy me.....tapped the axle in further, and everything is nice and tight as it should be !!!

I notice that your axle goes in further into the wheel compared to mine. If you look at the plastic cap on the axle end - compare mine to yours. My axle is out further from the fork.

Do you have the spacers installed on BOTH sides?

Yes. But I notice that the axle doesn't sit flush with the end of the fork where the bolt screws in.

Put new bobbins on the front wheel. Putting the wheel back on the bike and there's about a 1/4" of left/right movement of the wheel on the axle!!!! Obviously I've done something wrong - but wha ...

I might suggest that the better action would be to replace the radio. There are many out there that sound much better, pick up signals better and offer more listening options.
