R6 charging problem

[vegasrider2005]

New battery. If I charge it up full and ride the streets or just do stoppies it's fine but soon as I ride the bike hard and the fans have to run it kills the battery within 20 min. Is this normal with the 05 dual fan setup or is something up?

rectifier they blow all the time, i'v been through like 5 since i started riding r6's and if you crash alot like me me you will blow a few

no offense but that wasnt a very helpfull explanation



alot of times the rectifier isnt even bad the rectifier itself burns the plug and wires on the harness a good way to fix this is to unplug the harness from the rectifier and cut all the burnt ends off the wires and then use 10 or 12 gauge wire and splice them into each wire and then put an individual plug on each wire and then plug each individual wire into the rectifier and just keep an eye on them if you see one burnt change it

+1 Did you ever get a code 46 on the cluster? That's pretty common when the rect goes.

Bet your old battery is still good too.

I have a code 42 but everything still checks good lol but everytime I see the hunt of a burnt wire I change it
