I recently purchased a 1986 Suzuki DR500 which had had problems with electrics. I have replaced the battery, rectifier and indicator pods. The problem is that although the magneto is charging at between 6.5 and 8.2v, I cannot get the battery to charge. Whilst riding with front lights on, the lights get progressively dimmer. I suspect a short, or perhaps low amp output from magneto. Does any one know where I can source a downloadable wiring diagram. Any help much appreciated.

You're much better putting this in "The Workshop," which is for help on bikes, this section is for feedback and help about the actual forum.

A mod will probably come along and move it shortly enough.

Thanks Dave. My apologies, I thought that I had put it under workshop.
Cheers Chris
