Hey guys and gals. Out riding the 86 max yeaterday and it was running great! A few hours in, the bike started losing power and sounded like the the carbs were loading up. Then in heavy traffic, it stalled. Got it fired back up after waiting a few minutes, then it died again. Tried to start back up and the battery was dead. I replaced the rectifier a couple years ago when the same issue happened and all has been well till yesterday. I also noticed that while it was running yeaterday, the headlight was on but the light was pulsing with the engine revs. Thought if replacing the rectifier again, but i wanted to know if anyone out there has had this problem and if so, does it sound as if I may need a stator? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks so much!
