    What I found in my 85 750's charging system



    Might just be the problem I've had with no charging on longer trips.

    This $2+change voltmeter told me I was only charging till about 1/2 way though my 20 min commute.Have a FH009 MOSSFET R/R so that was probably not the problem.Did check the stator with the ohmmeter and got funky readings on 1 leg,wonder why

    Other side of the bad one and it's replacement off 1 of the 3 parts bike I got with the 85(see sig).Getting a solid 13+ volts now

          Not really,I'm going to put it on my wall of shame.At least this one I didn't do

              They should have put the epoxy all the way around to hold the smoke in better.

                  Yeah pretty much.IIRC I have 2 more in the stash if the one I put in isn't up to the job.All three legs check out at .7 ohms so I'm thinking I'm good to go for a while.
