So about 6 months ago, my bike started dying at stops. I did some research and found out it was my rectifier and changed it out. It lasted about mmm 5 months down the road and worked fine. About a month ago same thing...dying at stops. I read a thread about rectifiers going bad due to being near heat and bad spots on bikes which mine was behind the motor causing it to overheat. I relocated it to the front guard of the bike and it was running fine on the test ride. I take it out on a second ride and it dies completely again on side of road. The battery is completely fine and bike charges when on. Any thoughts? I'm scratching my head at this point. I do have a PMA setup on the bike too with a battery.
