yes, I figured it out a few weeks ago! thanks for all the help guys! the brown wire was shorting on account of the stator windings going to ground. I took the stator/pickup assembly apart and couldn't believe my eyes when I saw a huge gouge going through the coils!! how I missed that for so...

after I got the bike back home, the battery voltage read 10.2 volts and it didn't have enough amperage to turn my starter over. that battery went through 3 load tests and came out with flying colors. I just don't know anymore... anyone wanna buy a bike??

my rotor windings read 5.7 ohms. but that number jumps around depending on where I take my reading from. I have four wires tied together to my brown that are key switched to the battery. I found a 4 ohm resistance to ground on my brake running light and a 1 ohm resistance to ground on my...

my resistance from the brown wire to ground is 0.4 ohms read from the reg/rec. I started the bike with the headlight and tail light disconnected and once it was at idle I touched the brown from my brush to the brown from my reg/rec and the bike died. interestingly though, touching the two browns...

let me clarify, James. my coil won't spark when the brown from my brush is connected. and will not charge with it disconnected..

no charge when the brown from my brush is connected, 12v batt, and my rotors' resistance was right at 5 ohms.

i give up too..

oops, there's supposed to be a black line connecting my starter solenoid to my (+) battery terminal... just imagine its there ;) Posted via Mobile

i spent some time tonight and identified each wire. here's exactly how i have everything wired... Posted via Mobile

haha good call, I'll check that

yep, I already checked the brushes and I went ahead and ordered an installed new ones. and the regulator I ordered and installed is the first one you posted there. :/ as you can see, this charging issue is almost illogical! my reg/rec is the only component I haven't tested yet. I just figured it...

yep! that's the one!

thanks guys. I made sure that when I ran wires to make my new harness, that all my connections were good, taped and heat shrunk. as far as the rectifier, it's a new one I bought from mikesxs. I ran into this problem the first time I wired it. and just capped off the brown going to my brush(as a...

hey everyone, new guy here. so, i hate beating a dead horse but i too have a charging problem. ive searched the tech help, other peoples threads, etc. but no one seems to have the same issue i do. when the brown wire from my brush/rotor assembly is connected to the brown wire from my reg/rec...
