Hey guys. New to this site but I've been perusing it religiously for a while.
My battery is going dead. I did the "slap" test with a wrench on the outer stator cover and no dice on a magnetic pull. My battery is at 12.7 volts so it's not the issue. Pulled the brushes and they're an okay length. Found some corrosion on the center white stator wire and cleaned that off. Looking for advice on the next logical steps to find the weak link. The bike is a '73 tx650. Thank you in advance.
