    charging problem

    I have a problem. 83 gs550e I have a new fully charged battery and a new rectifier, I am getting 80volts ac out of the stator on all 3 circuits.
    At idle I get 13.5 volts at the battery but when you rev it up the voltage drops down to 12.3 volts and when you let it idle agian it goes back to 13.5.
    Please any help would be greatful.

    Best guess is either a faulty ground on the R/R or the R/R is on its way to saying bye bye.
    (assuming you have all three stator phases connected correctly)

        Ground it straight to the battery.
