I'm -2/+20 and i keep my idle up at 4000 rpms. Ever since i've been doing this, it seems like the bike drains its battery. I'll turn my bike off everytime i'm waiting for my turn, and about 6 or 7 times later from doing that, the bike is totally dead. (this is from a new battery)

Do you think it is the idle draining it? Or is it something else?

please

 

sounds like it might be the rectifier

I might have one kickin around if it is

 

are you coming to ride with us in austin this weekend? Bring that clapped bitch down here and we will figure out what is wrong with it.. lmao. I had a similar problem a while back and I had fried my stator. The gixxers, particularly the 750s are bad about burning up stators. If you look at a bad one you will see burn marks all over it. I have an extra stator and rectifier.

Its possible that starting/stopping it so much is draining the battery since the stator doesnt really put any charge on the battery until 5K+ rpms but I kinda doubt it. I think its time to bust out the multimeter and the manual.

 

Yeah my piece is acting up. lol I'm about to put this bike out of it's misery. I saw on the weather channel that it is suppose to rain on saturday. Are those other people still going down to austin? I don't care if it rains, we can still bust out the slow sh*t

 

uh oh macyver's at it again, , this guy i swear can fix anything with a ball point pen and some bubble gum. haha your bas *** lb3

 

haha. It doesnt look like the cats from corpus are coming anymore. Some of the guys from san antonio might still be coming and I dunno if keith from code blue is coming or not, I'll give him a call tonight but I doubt he's coming either. I am down to ride.. sunday looks good the high is in the 60s and only a 10% chance or rain.

 

Wassup, brad. This is Keith. Hey man, I'm not gonna be able to make it this weekend. I've got my bike all torn down slapping a paint job on it and fixing all the rest of the crap that's broken.....but, I definately want to come and ride one weekend very soon. I'll give you a shout.

later, Paw Paw

 

lets make a date in about 1 month and then everybody will have plenty of ample time to ask off from work and what not. then we can have a dope *** turnout. what do ya guys think?
good luck on your bike sam LOL
i'll get your tapes back to you soon buddy, for real this time haha

 

wow, first off.. with -2+20 4000rpm is ridiculous.. turn that **** down!

 

I had the same exact problem on my 900RR so i replaced the batery first and still done the same thing...it ended up being the rectifier,definately check that first

 

how far is austin from new orleans i might have to come up there and you guys teach me a couple of things

 

Mine does this two, I think I'm gonna replace my rectifier and see how it goes. My bike just killed over one

 

I'm gonna go ride today, but this time i'm taking 2 fully charged battery's Ain't nothin gonna stop me today :YEAH
