Been a little more than a year since getting my ’07 Mastiff and have logged over 3,000 miles on the machine, what fun! Since then, I’ve replaced the tires, battery and clutch plates, but haven’t had any electrical issues…until today.
I was going to take the dog for a ride, inserted my key into the ignition, turned it the quarter turn to the right and the horn started beeping, the lights were flashing and the starter began turning over! I immediately turned the key back off. Tried it again and the same thing happened. I disconnected the negative terminal, hooked it back up and it started normally. Figured it was a fluke instance and decided to still go for the ride.
About a mile down the road, the bike shut down completely. When I tried restarting it, the engine would turn over but not start, as if the plugs were not getting spark. I eventually got it restarted and made it back home.
So I’ve come to the realization that I need to replace the EHC. My question is, which option is best; Thunderheart Ignition Module, Dead One Customs ESC, WP Big Dog “HCM” Retrofit Kit? I'll do the install my self and want a unit that will be a clean swap and dependable.
