So old rectifier charging at 11 at all rpms.. Bought a used one that was bench tested and was fine. I installed it and was charging 14.8 idle then 18 plys when reving. So bought a new one not OEM because I’m not about to spend that kind of money till I’m positive I know my problem is. Anyways...

So rode today then tested.. its back to high volts... at 4000 rpms it charging at 18... Talk to a mechanic friend of mine and he said sometimes you have to change them as a set the rectifier and stator?

Final update..lol Went back out to check the numbers one more time and everything seems completely normal when it’s revving is charging at Between 14.2 and 14.8.. at idle 12.8.. Thanks for the help guys

For heck of it i plugged other rectifier in and its reading good.. maybe to good. Idle about 12.8 when i rev to 5k its 17.2... is that too much? The stater is pretty warm but you can touch it.

Now battery is 12.8.. when turn key its at 12.00. When i hit starter it goes to 10.8 for a second then fires and shows 12.0

Im at dead end.. battery tested perfect its a year old.. stator and rec tested perfect.. i tested both 5 times even checked the stator from plug at stator and at rectfier. Only thing that was odd was when guy tested batter he just hooked up tester for 1 second n said its good.. i had a tester...

Just watched vids.. seems super easy.. now i wanna leave work early and get this figured out..lol

Thanks guys im more of a parts changer then parts tester.. lol. But i think i can figure it out. Does the rectifier have to me mounted to work? Cause i can easily just plug the new one i have in and see if anything changes in few seconds.

I know batterys do weird things so im asking..lol

I’m just about ready to put the stator in my bike but I want to make sure that’s my problem. When battery is fully charged it reads 12.8 And charges 13.8 at 4000 rpm. after running at idle for 10 minutes read 11.0 at idle and 11.0 at 4000 rpms.

Receive the brackets today, thanks again.

Hmmmm my bike does this weird thing when im on it hard in 1st n 2nd gear in higher rpms. It almost feel like it down shifts but doesnt. I been thinking its because my wheels have no Cush drive. Like under hard acceleration the chain mite just slide up the teeth on sprocket a lil bit. Im not...

Awsome ... finally my filler panel wont me flapping in the wind..lol. Thanks again

Message sent.... i think.lol
