Hi all,

My CB125 café is having a small electrical issue, it burns tail lights like a motherfuc.... and i just dont know what is causing this.
The tail light has stop and presence in the same housing but with diferent bulbs and althought the stop light is working fine the presence light burns everytime i go for a ride.
So if anyone ever had this issue please give me a hint.
Sonreir, please????

yes, originally its 6v however i modified it to 12v.

All the other lights work just fine, blinkers, stop, medium and maximums in the front, tacho and speedo lights, all works except for the taillight that burns every time i go out for a run.

Check the connection from the ground (earth) wire INSIDE the light housing. Make sure it's working properly. Lots of times these lower cost aftermarket lights are poorly constructed.

You mean that with the vibration of the bike the connection to ground may be intermittent and therefore causing the bulb to blow?
I dont know if that is enough to blow the bulb, but Ok i'll have to check that possibility.

thanks
