yeA so i had a problem getting stranded a couple days ago.i couldent start my bike but i bump started and it ran, then after a min of riding my lights and tach started dimming till it was dead. bike was still running till my fuel pump lost power and started misfiring then stoped pumping im sure. got a new batt and bike felt strong as hell but same problem 2 days after. soo i kno i have a charging problem , or can it be somthing els. stater? i cheked the fuses their all fine. all help will be appreciated.

that happened to me before on a gixxer and it was the rectifier

check voltage of the battery with multimeter, then crank bike and put a multimeter on the battery terminals. if it doesn't raise the volts when running it's rectifier like suicidal said. 14+volts when running for a gsxr

regulator/rectifier thats wat it was on my f3

do they go out befor the stators? i have to keep charging my batt and hope tha my shiet dont die wen i leave where i gotta be.

so i gotta use a volt meter to see which one of the 2 is burnt damn i hope its the cheeper one. thanks suicidl for the 101, your not *******-ish like all the other people here.

try your alternator when the bikes running if its generating suffecient power then you rectifier is gone but it sounds like you generator is gone m8 your stator only tells the ignitor when to fire each plug has nothing to do with the charging system i'd say try the generator if not then the rectifier is not letting enough power back to the battery oh yeah when you test the generator be sure to test for ac high volts otherwise boom goes you meterhope this helps
