Well I got the used OEM rotor off another 77 that tests good and cleaned the rings up. So hopefully I'll have time to get it in this weekend and see if it holds out.

That's the plan if this used OEM doesnt work. I'll send the unit in for refurb. Might send it in over winter even if it does work out just to know its 100%. Reg/rec should be good, new units from the guy at Oregon motorcycle parts. Maybe 3-4 hours total run time on them

I just bought a used oem rotor off another 77 from ebay. Says ohms checked out in the description, will run and see what happens. If it's no good I'll send it to ya for a rewind

I had put the charger on about 40 minutes ago so I think my beginning voltage was a false high. Key off 12.9 1: 12.50 2: 12.45 3: 12.41 4: 12.37 5: 12.34 Recovered to 12.60 after key off

12.4 light off, drops to about 12 flat light. Losing 10th of a volt every few seconds, battery also hasn't been on the tender in a while. 11.96 with high beam

Running a 50/40 sealed beam. Both are definitely not on at the same time

Key on and the stop switch in the run position the volts are 11.97 battery, 11.86 regulator wire. Key on and switch in off position volts 12.4 show only a .01 difference between battery and brown wire at the regulator.

I'll give that a shot after work today and post results

I have a new reg and rectifier from oregon motorcycle parts.

I've been through 4 of them now. First 3 popped within the first 10 minutes of running the bike with the headlight on. Only difference between the first 3 and the 4th was I rode the bike 95% of the time with the headlight off, that's what makes me think its something within that system. Unless...

Bringing this back up. Bike sat for a good bit while I worked on more important things. Got a new rotor in and everything seemed fine. Went on a fairly decent daytime ride and volts held fine. However it was towards the evening when things went bad again. About 5 minutes into me turning the...

Got my new rotor in. Thinking volt drop is the issue. When the battery is registering 12.50 the brush is showing 11.39. I've cleaned my ignition switch and the connections in the headlight bucket. Must be the the wire running from the switch to the brush. Going to trace it and see if there are...

All connections have either been replaced or thoroughly cleaned. New brushes, regulator, rectifier and battery all with less than 2 hours total run time. Stator checked out good with a meter. I have not greased any connections

They are going to thoroughly inspect a new unit and ship it out to me. Lets hope the 3rd time around is good. If not I think I'll source a good used rotor and see how that goes.

Anyone have experience with aftermarket charging rotors? Bought one from ricks motorsport electrical, went out within 30 minutes after install. Sent it in for warranty replacement, new one came yesterday and I got maybe an hour ride before it quit working. Worked fine from the start. Good ohms...
