A few days ago I went for a ~150 mile ride round trip. At 80 miles in I stopped in to visit friends. When attempting to leave the bike wouldn't crank. I jumped it and rode straight home to find I'm putting out 11.3 volts at 3k. Checked the service manual and conducted the bleed test which according to manual determined I needed a new voltage regulator. Regulator came in yesterday with updated 77 connector (what a pain). Got it installed, wired up and still no charging. At the 77 connector from the VR I'm getting lots of juice (16+ volts) but brand new fully charged battery is just slowly discharging as it runs. Bleed test with BRAND NEW regulator indicates regulator needs replaced. I'm pulling my hair out!!! | ||

Have you tested the alternator? It's easy to check. It sounds like you have the factory manual? Keith |
