    Ok so I have a 2002 VFR 800 and this is what it is doing.
    When I turn on the switch even before I turn on the engine, there is a buzzing noise that comes from the dash. Initially the bike would start off and on so we thought it was a short. We unplugged the blinkers and it started just fine. So we got new blinker sockets and fixed the wiring to the blinkers.
    It ran ok for a couple days but out of no where today I turned the turn to ON and it began buzzing again and the headlights won't turn on. When I switch the low/high beem it changes pitch but still buzzes. And when I turn the blinkers on, the dash flashes and the buzzing noise buzzes along with the blinker flashes. But it also now starts just fine, but just does the buzzing noise.
    I dont get this, it came out of no where and Im out of options, any ideas?

    Yes...that sounds exactly like what they'll do with a really weak battery. If yours is good, check your battery terminals and any other grounds. There's a recall that applies to yours, make sure it's been done. If it has...I'd double check blue connector mentioned specifically in it for any sign of melting or bad connection on the solid green wire.
