Triumph 650 Daytona Motorcycle: Instrument panel shows "Lo", also brand new batteries go dead in matter of 3hrs. Entire digital Instrument panel flashes on an off when bike wont start. Breaking one terminal from battery connections with the key in off position shows no arc and have connected an amp meter in series with open terminal and battery post indicates no load with key in off position.

Are you familiar with the "Lo" indication on the instrument panel? is this coolant temp, oil pressure, coolant level?
