Does anybody have the step by step sheet on the charging system trouble shhoting. I think I have a bad batt. But not 100%. My bikes been died for 2 mounths.
The good thing is I jumped it and it fired right up after I got it to turne over
Yes. But check your specific gravity in the cells with a hydrometer asuming its not a sealed battery. And if you need a new one allegedly Wally Worlds Everstart ES12N94B1 is a fiscally responsible alternative at around the $30 mark. As my battery is on the way out I will be looking into this potential alternative myself.
bucket, how long have you been hiding? i didn't know there was anyone else in here from AZ. whereabouts are you in Chandler? i'm out in Mesa around Lindsay and McKellips. once our bikes are up and running, we should go for a ride. sounds like yours has less problems than mine. if you need any local help, let me know.

Im at Chandler and Alma School. I need a new startor bobs cycles has one but it $100 and I dont have the cash. drope me an E-mail. bucket.chris81@gmail.com

StaRter or stator?
dunno, bucket spelled it "startor". Must be one of those fancy new combo "Starter/Stators"
I started all over on the flow chart I wanted to duble check things.. and know Im thinking its not the stator. this is the thing that is odd to me. at idle my voltage it 13.8, but when I bring it up to 3,000 rpms it drops to 13.1.... I then measured the amps and only have .o1 amps. I then measured the AC volts from the White wires 52v on all of them. which tells me its the VR. I whent to the next step just because of the voltage drop from the first step. Im getting .5 ohms through the stator wich then tells my my stator is bad? what do you guys think both the VR and stator is bad?
