A few days ago, I fired up the bike and noticed I was sitting at about 11.3
Rode it a little, and the voltage slowly dropped. Barely made it home to about 10.7v
Tried to fire it up again, and nada.
Put the battery on charge and got it back to 12.4 holding.
Went outside, checked the stator wires (3 yellow) and found that only 2 had continuity.
Got a new stator and installed it this afternoon.
When looking at the rotor, I found one of the 2 coil wires was not connected (broken solder joint...)
I filed down the surface and did my best to get a good solder joint. Then capped it off with jb weld to help hold the wire through vibration.
I am having a hard time getting a reading on my rotor, so unfortunately thats probably hot garbage also...
I gotta do a little homework on how the system works.
Would the lose wire on the rotor cause the stator to go or are they unrelated?
