Kraptanaman Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 WHat is the charging voltage at the battery? Quote Link to comment
Sheep Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 You mean recommended voltage??....Im not sure what the book says but most of my bikes have shown on average 14.7v at idle...That's not to say every bike is the same mind you. Someone better educated than me will probably give you more insight...What bike is it (Katana perhaps lol) Quote Link to comment
Captain Chaos Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 between 13,5V and 14,5V is OK. The closer to 14,5V the better. 1 Quote Link to comment

johnr Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 (edited) check it lights on and lights off. then check that the stupid stock suzuki wiring layout has been modified to remove the third phase of the generator through the light switch, route all three phases of the alternator directly to the 3 inputs of the reg rec. if youre getting in the region of 13-5 to 14.5 v dc at the battery engine running then youre about right, but less than 13 and more than 15 and id be checking that everything is earthed correctly and plugged into clean metal before re testing. it. having said all that, alternators and reg recs are dirt cheap now so its not the major issue it used to be.
