There are no added mods to the bike, its all factory. In a million pieces at the moment
, but all factory. No fairing or radio, no extra lights or fancy gadgets.
The harness has some age to it, but overall the insulation of the wires are not dry rotted. Still flexible. The ignition switch is a bit on the loose side, but the gauge lights power off with the keys without any trouble. Is there a way to meter the switch to tell if it is shutting off correctly?
I will try the warm coil idea this weekend. I should be able to hookup that part of the system to trouble shoot it.
The regulator/rectifier would only hurt the charging system would'nt it? Before I pulled the engine off this week, I checked the charging system and it was charging 2 volts above the reading from when the engine was not running. I am understanding this is a good thing.
The battery is new, but I have access to a hydrometer. Just because its new does'nt mean its not broke. hehe been there before.
Just a note though... when I would ride the bike the battery was being charged and held it very well. It only dies randomly when sitting overnight.
