Charging problem

Thanks!
They're not worth buying from the US but it did help me buy some from a EU shop! I'll still have to solder an extension though...

I've installed the fh027aa MOSFET RR. Now, on a new and full battery it charges at 14.17-14.18V at idle and 14.19-14.2V at 2000-6000RPM. It required moving the rear brake reservoir to make extra room and modifying the OEM bracket. Not that hard but still a bit more work than anticipated.

Think 3 times before a SH847. Only place you'd be able to fit it is exposed, on one side of the frame or underneath the tail.

Any new news on the charging problem?

Not on my end. It starts every time.

So what exactly was your fix??

It's not fixed. Still has low voltage, but starts every time, without charging over night.

Same readings? 12.1VDC running and 12.5VDC static?

Close. 12.4v while running
No change, since we discussed on 15 May.

So you're probably showing lower delivery because of a damaged stator. Eventually it may leave you stranded.

Likely.
Thanks!

I'm getting a 2013 Honda Shadow Spirit 750, Monday.
Once I decide which bike I'm going to keep, if not both I'll either sell it or replace the stator.

Can't remember if you mentioned this, but did you check the stator plug? See the issue with my melting stator plug, few pages before.

Objectively, that Honda cruiser is half the bike the FZ6 is. Literally- half (or maybe less) the power, half the braking equipment, etc. But whatever makes one happy...

If you do sell the FZ6 as is, hopefully you'll let the potential new owners know about the charging issue beforehand.

Heck, it's a Hybrid NOW!

Plug in, then ride!
