Someone said there'd be cookies???
I'm 200 miles from home, holiday Sunday, in bumfuck Kentucky.
I noticed on the ride up here, that my rev counter was bouncing & i kinda half remembered that being a symptom of something on the charging system, but I couldn't remember if I was remembering right, or my brain was just wandering.
Come to fill up with gas & no electric start. Bum. Kicked her off, ran like a champ.
Second fill up, hard to start & didn't seem to want to idle. Revs perfectly & ran fine otherwise.
30 miles down the road & I had to make a left across traffic. Pulled the clutch & she just sputtered, backfired & died.
I'm reaching back into my history here, but it's this a symptom of the rectifier having took a shit?
I'm hoping letting her cool off will get me the last 63 miles......
