you have read if you run with no battery,and I think bad battery the engine sends out surges and blows all your bulbs
you have to have a decent battery I guess it soaks up the surges keeps the bulbs from blowing out
if you go to dratv.com they sell the correct bulbs, get 3-4 for the speedo gauge area, 1 tail light and new headlight along with a new battery
usually the turn signals should be fine

The battery is fully charged...When I bought the bike and it had the bad battery I did get the headlight to come on once....but hasnt since....I am assuming it is a connection issue but am not 100% sure where to start? I am a rookie to working on these but am willing to tackle it. Also when I hit the horn button it makes the slightest noise but that is it....I am assuming they are all related.
