So after trouble shooting this thing for several days a few weeks ago, i finally decided to replace the regulator, and after waiting a week to get the thing shipped i finally replaced it and charged the battery and rode it for a while. I let it sit for a day then tried to start it this afternoon but it is doing the same thing as before...basically it doesnt seem to be keeping a charge or have enough juice to start the bike. Any thoughts cuz im kinda stumped here. thanks guys.

 

bad stator?

 

is there any chance the battery could be at fault here? i doubt that is the case because it takes a charge, but just wont hold it...so i imagine it has to be the charging system causing me problems...but im just grasping at straws hoping its a easy fix.

 

allow the battery to drain and take it to a auto parts store like auto zone or checker, they can charge it and do a load test for free so you can rule that out.
