The other night, my '84 Interceptor VF700F's headlight stopped working. I opened the fuse box and checked the fuses, taking them out and putting them back in, making sure that there was no dirt that came in the way of the connections. But no dice. So I parked it. The next day, I had to take it out to avoid getting a parking ticket and put it in a long-term weekday parking spot, so I had to ride it without the headlight, but I made sure I did it during the day. I happened to slip while making a turn and dropped the bike. After some nice passersby helped me pick it up, I noticed the headlight was working again. I rode it again some more, then the tach stopped working. I checked the fuses again. It didn't help, but I had to get to my destination, so I kept riding. After a while, the tach started working again, but then the tail light stopped working. I checking the fuses again, but no dice.
Does anyone know what is going on with my bike (other than the obvious fact that it is old)? How do I get the tail light to start working again (besides dropping the bike again and seeing if that'll do the trick)?
