This is on the 05 that you had the coil problems with? Is the rectifier bad now? With the electrical problems that you have had, I suspect there is more than a charging issue. What is the history of the bike? Also, did you replace the stator with a stock unit or the larger one? Any other electrical issues currently? Lights, gauges, etc? I would check the fuse panel under the left side inner and the main fuse under the seat on the left side and see if the correct fuses (sizes) are in place... Also, I would check all the wiring from the stator to ensure that there are no intermittent connections or cut wires/shorts...

I feel your pain. I just fixed my charging problems, ( I hope) if I went on a 30 min or longer ride my batt would drain. I pulled the tail plastic off sat and the plug on the rec. was melted. the plug under the tank coming from the stator was melted. I ran new 10 gauge wires and solder everything. before when at idle the batt had 12.3- 12.7 v. now it has 14.5- 14.7 at idle. we'll see if that fixed anything.
