Any ideas would be helpful?

You have replaced stuff. Have you done any troubleshooting? When you run the bike, did you measure the AC coming off the stator? Have you measured the voltage on your battery when the bike is idling and then when you kick up the rpms?
Last, has the battery been checked with a hydrometer to ensure cells are not dead?

Click the 'Community' tab at the top of the page, then 'Filebase' on the drop down menu. Then click "Not model specific", and it is at the end of Page 3.

I used to own an old Suzi GS. These had weak charging systems so I've been through it a few times. Patience is your friend.

The Battery in new, and all these things have been checked.
All "what things" have been checked?
The ac voltage is Apx. 70 volts at 4000rpms and all other things check out fine?
That sounds ok, did you do the "fault finding chart" yet?
Again, all "what things" have been checked?
This is my problem?
Still need more details.

the only fix is to swap it for one of my derelicts and get yourself a new and interesting set of problems.
How about this fine CX500!

This is not a good idea. JTMcculoch melted his electrical system because of this. It's in the archives somewhere.try disconecting ground cable while motor is running,should stay running if charging
Never really figured out why, though.
