Have you checked (replaced) the the 5V capacitor on the PC board. Solved my problems.
"Where the ODO is flickering on/off and the needles are twitching it is normally an indication of a power supply problem internally, either dirt on the circuit board or a failing capacitor which is...
I had issues which was caused by a faulty capacitor on the PCB. After replacing the capacitor all problems solved.
The symptoms on my 2002 model were twitching tach and speedo needles and continuously flashing odo and clock displays whether the key was switched on or off

Hi
My fuel light came on last week (only after 170 km). Did not make sense, normally get over 270 km on tank. When I went to fill the tank, I noticed that the petrol cap was not fully closed. I believe it was like this after I filled the tank the last time. My problem only started when the...
To me it sounds like a fuel pressure problem . Almost as if you are getting air in the fuel injection line which needs to purge?
Went out for lunch at 12h00 and decided to put petrol in the bike. At garage when I wanted to unlock petrol cap with key, noticed that cap was open (not sealed)...
I have checked battery terminals, no problem.
At the moment it only happens if the bike stands for about 8 hours or longer (I use it to go to work). Struggle in morning and also after work (standing between 8-12 hrs).
It is also just on the 1st attempt to start. If I cut the engine immediately...
When pressing the starter button, the engine swings over, but does not start. On second attempt (pressing starter) it does start. Seems that it is getting worse. Once the bike has started, no issues, Can stop and start immediately, no problem. Problem only with 1st attempt (at the moment...
Another potential issue killing my batteries: my instrument cluster's printed circuit board is so water-damaged that an electronics company won't even try to fix it (I'm looking for second-hand parts now). One symptom (among an absolute slew of other interesting bugs) is that sometimes the...
I have been browsing the post searching for something similar.
I am aware of the starting procedure and battery issues. I checked battery level, bit low and also purchased in 2012.
Somebody else had similar issue years ago and it was the throttle potentiometer (spelling?) idle controller...
I am experiencing the same problem (see topic below that was posted in 2007). Especially long distance on hot days.
Do anybody have a solution?
I have 2002 Dakar, 45 000km
