Am slowly working out my bikes electrical system. I have 1984 1200 aspencade. Have checked the alternator and that is okay. Have replaced the dreaded 3 yellow wires using the solder system. So far so good.
Can someone now provide me with the following info. Thanks
What is the easiest way to test the rectifier.
It gets very hot very quickly and as it is located in the false tank it cannot cool down. It is normal to get so hot you can hardly touch it. :baffled:
What should my bike voltmeter be showing at what revs.
I really appreciate all the help from you guys it is enabling us to tackle this ourselves.
Cheers
