Re: power problem

check voltage of the battery with multimeter, then crank bike and put a multimeter on the battery terminals. if it doesn't raise the volts when running it's rectifier like suicidal said. 14+volts when running for a gsxr

Re: power problem

try your alternator when the bikes running if its generating suffecient power then you rectifier is gone but it sounds like you generator is gone m8 your stator only tells the ignitor when to fire each plug has nothing to do with the charging system i'd say try the generator if not then the rectifier is not letting enough power back to the battery oh yeah when you test the generator be sure to test for ac high volts otherwise boom goes you meterhope this helps
