potential purchase

[Korbin Dallas]

Hello all. As it says..potential purchase.. 2013 brammo empulse but warning on the dash says SEVERE UNDERVOLTAGE. not used in over 2 years at least. New to this kind of bike. Am I getting a nightmare? or fixable? thank you

Hello Korbin,
I would say charge it and see what happens before the purchase!

good luck!

Were you able to charge it?

nope.. preparing to disassemble

Hello Korbin, you could check if the dc-dc converter(close to the rear tire) delivers 12 v. If it doesn't I think there's no charging possible.

greetings,
Gerry

Hi Gerry, thanks for the info. I will check that. The bike has been stored out side so there is a lot of corrosion on the fasteners and battery connections. I was able to push the bypass?? button on the right side near the steering stem and dash lite up. 2 of the battery green led lights did not come on. I am just now in the process of taking everything apart and getting the batteries out and cleaned up. plan to check the charge on them individually then rig up a way to bring the charge up on them if they are salvageable.
I appreciate all the input from everyone on this forum. This is all new to me and any knowledge passed on to me will help.

Cheers

Rich
