Verified that I did not have a voltage draw, replaced battery that tested bad. I hope the test instrument was functioning correctly, after all, it was the autoparts store device.

I guess time will tell...

Got ran off the road Saturday night. The rear fishtailed and the right rear tire hit a hole. The air shock busted so I now had a reason to install my Koni gas shocks and bags for the springs. The ride is pretty stiff for now. Hopefully the shocks will settle a bit since the tail is setting a little high for me.

I'm running with 5lbs in the bags. The ride home tonight was a lot better than the ride in. It seems the shocks settled in a bit. The on/off ramps were taken just a little faster and smoother. Not as much bounce as the air shocks had. I think I'm gonna like this set up.
