Battery Drain Problem

[RickyBobby]

Hello ,

I have 2001 Busa , I put in a new battery and road a bit then my cluster gauges started acting up and the mileage was gone , temp is either at low or max same for fuel , rpm and speedo stays stuck.. I swapped batteries again , same problem. Has anyone had an issue like this? Thanks

Side not I removed the cluster , the connector was tight and no corrosion on the terminals

Sounds like the stator might be bad and it’s not charging

As SSGT said, it needs to have the charging system checked for correct voltage output...and also be sure the battery terminals are secure and clean.

I just replaced my stator, battery, and reg/rec...When my bike started losing power while riding I would lose the headlight and then the gauges.
My issue ended up being the reg/rec, which was the last thing I replaced

yeah, gets expensive when you guess what parts it needs . . .
there's a specific sequence to check charging system components,
1) charge and then load test battery . . .
2) test AC voltage output from the 3 separate phases coming from the stator harness . .
3) Check voltage reg/rectifier input and output . . .
there's a ton of info online about this.
Glad you got it sorted anyway.

@Kiwi Rider

yes exactly that´s the way

and

@RickyBobby

all the testing is well described in the manual
