So the battery on my 95 VT1100 C2 has been leaving me stranded for the past few weeks (again) and I've been doing some diagnosis on it. I checked resistance on the yellow wires going to the stator/alternator and it'a according to spec (.3 ohm). I checked the voltage on the green wires going to the regulator/rectifier (which I should have continuity on when I ground on the frame?) and I get an overload reading. I hope that's my problem, can anyone confirm this?
When I charge my battery I read 12.6 to 12.7 volts, only 10 to 11 when running so obviously not enough to keep a charge. I don't mess with electrical stuff too often and only own a multimeter so I'm learning as I go through my Clymer manual!
