I can't believe it's not butter! . do these things have an alternater , mabe you could get it checked out by someone. a know you said the battery is new but could it be faulty?

no there is a charge of 12.7 coming from it . i thought it might be the actual ignition that was turning but faulty in some way ?? not sure tho?

Sounds like a problem with the ignition switch. Not sure if that bike has direct AC dip/main beam from the alternator but the indicators will certainly be off the battery. Try spraying some switch cleaner into the ignition switch.

just had a thought maybe way off but have a look at the points in the bike.. i'm trying to think back to when i had my yb100 and engine wouldn't start and it was the points needing replaced. check it and see if needing replaced or the gap adjusted..

maybe next time your going up to look at the bike u wanna swing past to pick me up n i'll have a look as well

If it was an ignition fault things like the horn, brake light and indicators would still work.
