    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Hello,
My bike wouldnt start the other day, the lights dimmed when i hit start button so I checked the battery. It was 13.6 volts. I had a spare battery ,so i put it in and it started right up. That lasted one day with the new battery and now it wont start again, its doing the same thing as before. Any ideas whats on here? Thanks so much!

could be your r/r or stator. Check out Basscliff site on here and do the stator papers check. Not difficult, just take your time and follow the steps. terrylee
 
Hi,

It is possible for the battery to show proper voltage but have no current. Yes, go through the Stator Papers like Mr. terrylee recommended. Check and clean all of your electrical connections. A regulator failure might have overcharged your battery and fried it. Take it out and have it tested. When the stator fails is usually undercharges the battery. Keep us informed.


Thank you for your indulgence,

BassCliff
 
Your electrical system is over charging the battery and killing it. So check the charging system.
