The R/R was weak. Diodes were good. idle charge was 13.x Swapped in zx14 R/R. Idle charge with highbeams and fans running 14.2v fans off with low beams 14.6v. Everything is stable above 3k rpms at 14.6V regardless of whether my fans or high beams are running. I think we can count this as...

Took the battery to brick and mortar before work. It is not the battery.

My concern at this point after working through the flow chart is that I cannot find the error. Changed batteries. Stator has good connectivity and output. Passes every test. The R/R is low but within "operating range." But it doesnt explain why the battery isnt charging. Perhaps my battery is...

I work 14 on, 2 off. Limited play time with 4 kids. Pulled ground connections from frame and engine, used a piece of scotchbright and cleaned the mating surfaces just in case. Second battery was install is soo easy and it helps I had it. It powered my fish finder on my kayak last year. :) When...

I wil check this out for sure. But an odd thing. I charged it up at the work(yes i was prepared and had an extension cord and my charger in my back pack) fuelled up 3.8 gallons(that was close) and rocketed straight home down the expressway instead of taking the side roads. No issues. Left it...

Rode into work this evening and wouldnt you know it, the battery was drained after a 30 mile ride. I had to push her the last 3/4mile. Terrible.

No it means. my legs hang down off the bike at stop lights, and when i ride I tend to demostrate Fatherless behavior.

EDIT: problem not solved. "Problem Solved Yamaha should fire the engineer who thought a crimp was a good idea. All it took was the ground and positive from the R/R to be hardwired to the battery with fuse."

Thank you for answering my question. I appreciate it. Looks like this bike does not have the crimp fixe done. I'll be building a fused bypass like I have seen on this page once I acquire a couple female blade connectors to go from the R/R to the battery. Thankfully I have an inline fuse 30a...

All 3 stator wires are showing .4ohms idk if this is good or bad.

lapeer/flint area.

okay. I found the connection point. after i bought and charged the battery (li-on) without starting it sits at 12.6 while its cold and running if i rev it to 5k i get 12.8... it has a new style finnes R/R but i'm worried its on the stock harness for the power and the ground is on the frame...

I can't see the pictures for his zx14 R/R so which side is ground and which one is postive to battery?

Okay i've read several threads about direct wiring the "red wire" from the RR to the battery. Is the wire end inside the battery/coil area? I can't find it. Any help? This is on a 1985.

Hello! Nice to meet everyone. I'm just a squid who love v4 power. Got my hands on a 1985 and its beautiful. Can't wait to ask question after question!
