Author Message   Samg Posted on Saturday, April 10, 2010 - 09:38 am:        I am trying to figure out what is the harness update designed to do...After a 15 minute ride let the bike idle for 10 minutes..Post the lowest voltage reading (while engine running) and the outside air temp... Mine was 11.8v at outside temp of 88 degrees   Gemini Posted on Saturday, April 10, 2010 - 09:56 am:        the "work" of the update is to open leg of three legs of charging from the stator to the regulator and engine speeds below 5000 rpms   Yamatr3 Posted on Saturday, April 10, 2010 - 10:02 am:        Why were the early bikes not effected?   Samg Posted on Saturday, April 10, 2010 - 10:15 am:        Gemini...thanks for the reply, i am trying to figure out,what is the lowest voltage reading for this system.   Cataract2 Posted on Saturday, April 10, 2010 - 10:46 am:        Yamatr, it has to due with the stator of the bikes. The 09 have a higher wattage stater vs the 08.   Gemini Posted on Saturday, April 10, 2010 - 10:58 am:        samg on my next ride i will set the display to voltage and pay attention to it. probably give you an update sun afternoon   Gemini Posted on Saturday, April 10, 2010 - 11:24 pm:        didn't try the prolonged idle, but while riding around town, my voltage never got below 13.7   Samg Posted on Saturday, April 10, 2010 - 11:38 pm:        Gemini...While riding my Voltage stays around 13.7 to 14. Its while i am idling for a while ( 10 mins or more ) in traffic i see the voltage slowly drop to 11.8...hopefully that is not normal...   Gemini Posted on Sunday, April 11, 2010 - 12:34 am:        i'll try that tomorrow if i think about it. if not, i will be forced to monday when i go to work. lol   Milleniumx1 Posted on Sunday, April 11, 2010 - 08:15 am:        Samg, I did this to my post-harness install '09R yesterday. It was 13.9-14.1 while riding, never dropping below 13.7 even in heavy traffic and hot. Idling for 10-15 minutes in my driveway,never below 13.8 ... Seems unchanged from before on my bike.   Vinb Posted on Sunday, April 11, 2010 - 09:03 am:        The lowest I get is 11.8V but not for long the bike will pick up to 12.2-12.4 at an idle so I'm happy with that so far.   Ezblast Posted on Sunday, April 11, 2010 - 03:25 pm:        13.2 is my lowest   Rkc00 Posted on Sunday, April 11, 2010 - 09:09 pm:        Rode the CR today with the new harness that was installed last week. Started out at 14V when I left the house. It was on a tender in the garage. Highway riding it was reading anywhere from 13.4 to 13.8 Stuck in NYC traffic heading of Long Island and was stop and go for 35 mins. No more than 10MPH. The lowest it got was 12.2v
