Hi all,
I am new on this forum and with my 78 xs650E.
My issue is that the battery dies when parked. There is a voltage drain of about 0.1V and I suspect the rectifier. The manual I find cryptic on the test procedure.
Can anybody here direct me to a straight up analysis method to trace the problem?
Also if it is the rectifier or alternator, are there some solid state aftermarket components to replace the 32 year old technology with something reliable?
Thanks, Jürgen
