bike wont start

[P-ham]

im starting to think its either my stator or rectifier like alex said

[ALEXD]

It should be rectifier first before the stator and I would just buy a rectifier first before you even get a voltage meter because your bike isn't running anyway so just put your money towards the part you need but that's just my 2 cents

[old man roger]

you can get a voltage meter for 3 bucks from harbor freight , buying parts on a guess gets expensive ..

so i took the rectifier from my other R6 and put it on and it still didnt start so im thinking its not my rectifier now its probably my stator or a loose connection. i tested one of the relays with the light and it blinks instead of a steady light. what should i do?? im about to go tear off that stator

if you arent going to check the voltage then you might as well just put a bunch of guesses in a bag and draw them out one at a time .

putting a regulator/rectifier from another bike on wont tell you any thing if your battery is dead .

some people dont know how to opperate those voltage things. i dont even know what they look like

ok then here goes volt meter 101 , get a 3 dollar volt meter and set it just like the one in this picture




if you put the end of the leads on your battery you can tell what the voltage is , red on positive black on negative

no more excuses

[sc0braj]

did you push start it and let it run for a while after you put on the other rectifier?

I always wondered why black is negative ? whoever decided that was racist lol.
