  • [Photo Feature]: Please help me with Avenger 220 ignition [emoji2311]

    Hello riders [emoji1317]

    I need your help with My Avenger 220 Street 2019 model. Two weeks back when I was all set to go for a ride my bike ignition didn't work. It displayed en error message. I pushed it in second gear and got it started somehow. After going 4-5kms it got charged. It went fine further.

    Last Sunday I didnt rode it anywhere and on Monday morning when I started it, the ignition didn't work again. And again I increased RPM and pushed it and started.

    Today also I had to press the ignition 3-4 times and increase RPM. I feared it might need that push start method again.

    Now I must mention some of the things about my bike and riding -

    1) I rode it daily 8-10kms except Sundays.

    2) Battery indicator doesn't blink so I get to know if its discharged.

    3)Two electrical accessories which I have installed on it

    #1) Motowolf mobile mount and charger(which I never used to charge my mobile, only there is a small LED indicator remains on in this mobile holder)

    #2) A gps device which always tracks its location.

    Apart from this I haven't installed any accessories like lights still I wonder how does it get drained so fast.

    4) The place where I live is dry hot climate not cold or humid.

    I knew already there wasn't a kick in this bike, still I bought this bike with great charm coz I didn't see forums or reviews that mention serious issues with its ignition. Also I see many Avengers with lots of accessories and riding high altitude regions with no big issues. Should I remove those two accessories too ?

    This is so embarrassing sometimes when you are pushing your new bike that you had bought with great enthusiasm.

    Please suggest me what should I do now.

    Thanks fellows.

      Yes first start with just disconnecting these two accessories for 1 week and see if bike starts after not using for 1 full day, it's not about having too many accessories but how they are connected to main battery and wiring, so something can be issue with wiring.

      Also low battery warning comes on only if battery voltage is less 10.2V(battery indicator is not dependent on current), your battery voltage might be above 10.2V, but it is not able supply 5Ah current needed by the starter when is your bike electric circuit is on full load.

        Yes removed both yesterday. I wont use it on Sunday and then check next day.
        There can be issue with battery too coz i guess these too accessories dont use that much of power.
        Well, waiting for Monday and then get back here.
        Thank you.
        Its great relief for novices like me, to have a word with experienced riders about our bikes. [emoji1317]

          Hello again...
          I kept my bike parked for 24hours and started it on Monday morning. It got started at once.
          Now, its okay to keep those accessories cut from battery coz I am not going on long rides but I will need them later. So wilo it drain battery again ? What do you suggest ?
