I have a Starcom intercom system (UK system) on my bike which, until the recent service, worked perfectly with no background static at all. After the service there is background static on acceleration and decceleration which is quite irritating. At constant speeds be it 50 or 150kmh it is fine and clear.
I contacted the service agents and they confirm that the spark plugs replaced at the service were the Bosch resistor plugs as per the bike specs. I have checked all connections, earthwire etc - no problems. The system connects to the bike power supply via the accesory plug available on the 1200GS.
I am at a loss to explain why this is happening now after 6 months of hassle free communication ? Unfortunately my knowledge of bikes is limited. 🙁 I like to ride them. 🙂
Cheers

😆 😆Is it a ticking noise you hear? They may have rerouted your cable too close to an iginiton cable after the service. I’ve also noticed that it can be weather dependant, high humidity will make it worse. I am sure you’ll be able to cure it.

Thanks. None of the cables were rerouted during the service – I don’t think they actually touched the unit. I will check though – the battery earth is worth looking at.
In answer to a pevious post yes its a clicking noise similar to what one hears with a car radio when you get elctromagnetic interference.
Thanks for the ideas
