 Posted: 14:30 - 17 Aug 2016 Post subject: Battery voltage query |
 |
|
Gsxr 600 k1. Wasn't charging it's battery. Stator was at fault (not getting any real ac voltage from it.
New stator now working fine.
Voltages in the battery reading 13.8 at about 6k revs. Raising from about 13.3 at idle.
This doesn't sound enough to me and feel I should get a new reg/rec (google says around 14.6 under load).
So is it enough or too low? ____________________ || Past: 1991 Kawasaki ZXR 250 ~ 2003 Honda CBR 600 F Sport ~ 2004 Kawasaki ZX6R B1H 636 ~ 1999 Yamaha R1 ~ 1999 Kawasaki ZX6R J ~ 2004 Kawasaki ZX6R B1H 636 ~ 1998 Honda VTR1000F Firestorm ~ K1 GSXR 600 Track bike ~ K6 GSXR 1000 ~ 2006 Speed Triple 1050 || Current: 2005 R1 https://www.adrucore.co.uk |

If you put the main beam the heated rear window and press the brake what does it show?
It may only pump the juice in if there is load.
It would be handy to connect an ammeter in line to see how much amps the system is drawing. Loaded and no load.

As above and note that reg/recs can sometimes work and sometimes don't.
I thought it not possible but have ridden with a plug in voltage meter and after a while it would stop working until the bike had been switched off/on again then it'd work for a while then crap out again.
Wasn't a mosfet one which I understand have an improved switching system. ____________________ Diabolical homemade music Bandcamp and Soundcloud
