LF200 Problems - Page 2

Well, I saved a LF200 from going to crap. The bike was mistreated and left outside for months. Since I got it I have put a lot of work into it and it runs fairly well. Understandibly however, there are still problems.

First off, the wiring on the thing was all screwed up by the previous owner. The flasher bulbs were blown out and missing and the headlights won't come on like they are supposed to. They DO work though because if I hold down the button for the brights they illuminate fine. They just don't come on as running lights.

Also, when I press on either brake -- front or back -- the flashers, on the front and back, will randomly start flashing (sort of like emergency lights on a car). However, the turn indicators work perfectly (With the annoying beeping noise and all). OH and I think I might add that the RPM meter doesn't work either but the speedo and odo work fine along with fuel.

So yeah if anyone can help me out with these problems I would greatly appreciate it. I'm a college kid and I got the bike to help cope with fuel costs.
