So another update with the Trailtech RR.

I have connected a 50v 3300 uF capacitor into the system.
And with the fluke meter on the system the capacitor is charging up slowly ?. Probably reaches 1v after over a minute maybe 2 minutes.
When connect with the lights connected it immediately drains the capacitor.

I have now decided to just go ahead and find a nice and small battery with roughly 2-4ah and try to mount it somewhere in the air box without affecting any other parts of the bike. Iv seen some security batteries with high AH ratings and small dimensions so this may work for now.
So for now the bike is running good (idle is a bit intermittent) and I will be wiring up lights and just allowing the RR to charge the battery.
I feel the capacitor route will take too much trial and error to see what size capacitor will suit. Maybe the bulb I have is too strong 🤷🏽*♂️
