I feel stupid asking this
Well, I've having charging issues with the bike, (no suprise there) but thats a long story. I feel like a tool asking this question, but are these 93's supposed to be running both headlights? Or one for low and one for high, go easy on me guys lol....Thanks in advance

RE: I feel stupid asking this
Its kind of a long story but here goes:
Well, ages ago it wasn't chargin properly - way too low, never exceeded 12.5 volts at any RPM range. Found the culprit and it was a burnt RR. What a suprise.... I replaced it with a suzuki unit b/c their much better constructed and simple to mount and rewire.
Only problem was, the RR had burnt out way before I cought it and took the stator with it. Again, no suprise there. I recently replaced the stator a few days ago. OK, so new stator and RR. Here's the part where I scratch my head.
On idle we're lookin at 13-13.5 V of charge. As soon as the RPM rises, the volts drop dramatically. At 4-5k RPM its lower that 12V if I've got both headlights plugged in. Its just plain bass ackwards. Charges high on idle and low at 5k RPM. Thats my charging issue in a nutshell.
