I just got home from a short ride today. When I got home I parked in front of my house for about 15 minutes. Then I started my bike back up and rode it around back and parked it on my back porch. The weird things that happened were:
1: My turn signals would both come on when I turned them on. Just like when you turn on your hazards. I don't think anything is loose but they did it every time I turned them on just riding around the block and down my alley.
2: When I got to my back gate, I parked the bike in neutral and left it running. After I got the two gates open to my porch the bike would die when I put it into first gear. It did this maybe 3 times, then it ran fine. Is this something I should look into? How can I possibly fix it?
3: After I got my bike parked on my back porch I looked in the little oil level window and noticed my oil is pretty dark. I just had all the fluids changed before I purchased the bike, does the oil get dark after about 3 days of total riding time (I ride when ever everything isn't frozen)?
Please help me with these few possible issues. I would really appreciate it. I hope that these potential problems can be fixed by myself, I really don't have the cash to take my bike into a mechanic, but if that is the only way to fix these possible issues, well then I gotta figure something out.
Thank you so much everyone
