    So I am back again the problem resurfaces once I let the bike sit for a day or two the clock and odometer resetting again. It worked great for few days then let it up for day or two and back to square one

    Is there a battery for the trip odometer memory? If not, would it be difficult to wire one in?

    Yeah starts on the button no problems there and the light gets brighter as you rev the bike in neutral. It has 12 or so amps sitting in the bike and goes up to 13.5 under load of 2k revs I probably just being picky TBF. Just a a mpg nerd I like to know what distance I am doing don't care bout the clock it's the trip odometer I want lol
