a battery tender in the future will keep your battery at peek charge...

 

have you metered the alternator for power? it needs a bit of power input to it, so don't unhook it while testing it. just meter it at the battery. the alternator needs an "excitation current" in order to create the magnetic field thats gonna make the power in the first place, unlike a stator that has a pemanent magnet assembly...

look for about 13-14 volts at 2000 rpm or so... if theres anything less, i'd ckeck the alternator, and its belt..

keep us posted!!

 

how you take off your seat

 

should be a little pull cord under the passenger seat. gotta remove the rear, passenger seat first.. should be a key thingy on the clutch side of the bike for that. then directly behind the rider seat in the middle otta be a little black loop. pull this lightly and the seat should be able to be pulled straight up and off.
