Yea ive done the same except my indicators are not LED, the bike definatly cannot charge the battery while the lights are running, it can if the headlight is off, i did about 2 hours of riding and lost a whole volt on my battery today. in NSW we must have a headlight on at all times and tail lights. Forgetting that i leave the indicator dosent help either as they are 40 watts each side. Expect about 4 hours of riding before a flat battery on a 4ah batt.

quick question, What rear fender is that? or what other MX style fenders fit?

Not to sure, i think its a kx fender, alot of kx fenders are interchangable for front and back, UFO also make some for the kdx i believe.

Hi, nice looking bike! It looks like yours is a D2 model which comes with a battery.
Mine is a C3 UK model which does without.

It recons c2 butbi dunno. She blew 2 days ago i thought the little end let go but i took it apart and everything is prestine, no carbon deposits anywhere or scoring or any wear whatsoever looks brand new even perfect plug reading. Yet extremeley low compression. Maybe a case seal went?
