i did some testing and found the following:
Charged the battery to 12.7 and started the bike. It immediately started going down. After a few minutes the battery was around 12.4 while the bike was running. The rectifier showed just below at about 12.35. After a few more minutes of it running the rectifier showed 11.95 and the battery at 12.0.
I then tested the wire coming out of the stator. THIS PART IM NOT SURE IF I DID CORRECTLY WITH MY VOLT METER. I turned it from the DC setting (how I got the numbers above) to the OHM setting at 20k or 200k or something. It was showing 15-16 coming from one of the wires out of the stator while it was still plugged into the bike (I stuck the little needle in the connector with it still connected).
So was the second part the correct method (OHM setting) for the stator? And should it have read around 30? If not how do I test the amps from the stator? I tried it on the DC setting but got nothing.
