    Hi guys .I think i have a parasitic drain.when I start my bike after one day the voltage is down to 11.9v..and when I checked it the day before it was 12.3v..I noticed a GPS connected underside of the fuel tank..just thinking if it could be that as I think the previous owner put it on..tell you the truth I dont know what it is but it does say GPS on it..I have already tried a brand new battery and it does the same..please can someone help..

    Trackers and alarms are the usual suspects, sounds like you've more than likely found it. Although beware its not a decoy, trackers arent meant to be that easy to find!

    If it were me I'd just remove it all together. Might be a bit of a hunt looking for how it's wired in though.

    Multimeter connected in line with the negative terminal and setup for Amps will display any parisitic draw.

    Honda dealers were giving away free trackers for a while.

    The lithium polymer battery in the tracker unit must of died and started sucking the battery from the bike.
