Default loss of power!! help!
ok, so I have a 1993 r1,90k mi., that is highly modded, done professionally by pettit, but I am loosing power overnight, I dont leave anything on but there is something drawing power, sometimes it takes 3days sometimes it only takes an hour, I have a yellow top optima relocated to back compartment, and a new alternator (less than 4mos. old) this has been going on for some time now but I just cant figure out what it is. if anyone has had the same prob. or similar or any sugestions. let me know.

Your ride looks great. I don't know what the problem is but for a quick fix of the problem so you wont run out of power is to use a motorcycle trickle charger to keep the unit charged while the car is not in use. But if you said it on;y takes 1 hour to drain your battery I'm not sure if that trickle charger will help at all since it takes a few hours to fully recharge it.
