Duff battery after two years ??

Quick update:


I finally got round to doing the "Sasquatch Fix" with the rectifier wired directly to the battery. I used 10AWG wire and a 30volt maxi fuse and holder.


So at the start of all this without any modifications I was getting 12.5V on tickover, and about 13V throughout the rev range.

Then with a new SH847 rectifier on the bike I was getting 12.9V on tickover, and about 13.8V throughout the rev range.

And with the SH847 and "Sasquatch Fix" I am getting 13.1V on tickover, and a constant 14.3V throughout the rev range.

So an expensive way to gain 1.3 volts, but hopefully worth it   :icon_wink:


A big thanks to everyone who helped out - Cheers  :icon_salut:
Safe Riding.

Regards,
Graeme.
