I have a 1983 R80RT with a strange problem and want to know if any other R80 owners have seen anything similar. In the mornings when I start the bike up and start riding it in the dark the Generator light glows very faintly. When I come to a stop the light goes out, but as soon as I start up, it starts to glow again. I have had the entire charging system checked out by the BMW shop and except for adding a new ground strap to the diode, they could find no problems. Anyone ever hear of this type of problem before?
