    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Battery dead after a ride, help!

I plan to solder all the connections and remove the connectors all together. Ordered a replacement off of ebay. Hopefully it will show up next week. Cross your fingers!

Thanks to BassCliff for supplying the Clymer manual. Between that and the Stator Papers I'm pretty sure I've got it nailed down.
 
Are you removing all connectors? I wouldn't do that unless you have some way of getting access to parts around your harness. What happens if you need to troubleshoot an end point? Are you going to redo the entire harness? Yes, connectors introduce another point of failure but they serve a good purpose too by providing a modular approach to different parts of the bike.
 
I was just going to remove the harness that the R/R plugs into and solder that as the new R/R has no harness just 5 loose wires.

I strongly suggest you connect the Stator wires directly to the R/R. Forget about those old harness wires. For the R/R output, you can go though the old fuseblock, or direct to the battery if you are willing to add another fuse.

Hmmmm... That would be good. Currently my bike only has one 15A fuse in the entire system. It is between the positive output of the R/R and the positive battery terminal. Where would I add the second fuse?
 
R/R finally showed up while I was on vacation last week. Got home today and installed it, problem solved.
