Aw yeah man... no doubt! Actually I was glad to hear/read on one of your videos that you experienced static discharge whilst charging thru the dunes sand.
On my first ride with the K5 I was at Stoddard Valley... at one point we were riding along near some high-power lines... and my fingers that were touching the clutch lever kept feeling like they were getting zapped! I was freakin' cause I thought maybe it was a symptom brought on by arm pump at that point.
I reasoned that it couldn't be some kind of exposed electrical connection otherwise the bike would probably just die.
P.S. - I was SOOO mad when we got to Gorman to find out I hadn't packed my dang battery pack for the HelmetCam.
