New to the forum and just bought the F2 last week. Bike is a little cold natured but if it doesnt crank by the fourth try battery will die. Can jump it off and ride it up the road but if it cuts off the battery is still dead and wont turn it over. Any help would be greatly appreciated. If you tell me to check out certain parts or connections, please be specific about location. Im as new to the motorcycle as it is to me. Thanks

 

battery is dead by now, rectifier is probably shot too. So look at the rectifier plug and check for burn marks.

 

Where is the rectifier and if I buy a new one is it just plug and play
