a test light between the battery post and the cable end. If there is a drain, the light will light. Now start removing electrical things until the light goes out. (On a car I pull fuses one at a time.) When the light is out you know which circuit to tackle.
That might be enough to get you started.</span></font></span></div>

days of sitting? New(ish) wet-cell battery, just topped up the acid this Friday, charged it up. On Saturday the bike started, ran fine (after I cleaned a couple of fouled spark plugs – two-strokes, you gotta love 'em), but went to try it again this evening
and it barely lights the neutral light.</i> </span><span style="font-size:11pt"><br>
