    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.

hey all. I'm helping Robert out for his journey back to Toronto and decided to test his charging system. Bike, 1979 GS850G. Fully charged bike battery (he's got a car battery strapped to the rack as he was having charging issues). battery alone 12.57 key on not started no lights 12.10, idle 12.82, 2500 rpm 14.68 and sits 5000rpm it stays at 14.7. What ye say?? He had to put the old stock stator back in as the new one was the wrong size, He has what looks to be a new Electrosport Reg/Rec. I have wired the stator directly to the reg/rec and gave it the single ground treatment. Do you think he's safe to travel 4500kms on it? :D
 
"2500 rpm 14.68 and sits 5000rpm it stays at 14.7"

Looks perfect.
 
Thanks Ed, I figured as much but he is heading off today at 3pm so wanted to get a second opinion. Looks to me as though his motorcycle battery is fine as well, he thought it wasn't charging. Well he's got a full size care battery on the back in case the stator fails on the way but I bet he'll be just fine.
