So if anyone has seen my last post(s) about my wiring harness being melted, I found out it was my R/R and I hardwired it to the harness. I did buy a cheap one off of amazon (not my finest moment) and it seem’s like it’s been doing fine.
Now to the real issue. After changing the R/R I rode it for about 50ish miles. Went to ride it the next day and my battery was dead. Today, I bought a new one, put it in, and fired the bike up and let it idle for 5 mins or so before I had to turn it off so I can put the back piece on. I tested the voltage while it was in idle and I was at 11.89volts. I went to start it and the starter cranked a few times real slow and then clicking like a dead battery. Would that mean I have a bad stator? Or do I have a short somewhere that’s draining the battery?
Sorry if the story is all over the place. I’ll try to respond to comments/questions as fast as I can.
TIA!!
