Bike is running now,,

chuckster131 · 03-08-2009, 08:26 PM

Well after finding out that my multi meter was at fault, I have discovered that the stators are good.

With the bike running the regulator plugs were getting very hot. I spoke with another member and he stated that he had cut the plugs out and wired them direct. So that is what I have done now and the wires are not getting hot anymore. The charging system is still abit week according to the manual, am I'm guess that when the wires melted it did damage to the regulators.

I'm still getting 13.9 to 14.2 at idle, but when I rev the motor up the voltage goes down to 13.7 to 13.8. So I will look into swaping those out to see if it will increase the charging voltage.
