Hey this is my first post and I'm already looking for help. I bought a 79 XS400 from a guy I know. He and I and a couple others rode out of the Indianapolis area, over Niagara Falls and back home through Detroit/Windsor last summer so I know this bike is a runner. I bought it as a beginner for my 17 year old son. The main problem I have is the battery won't stay charged. The stator tests good. The rectifier tests good. The regulator is not like what the manual describes. It is a kind of a flat little sealed up thing with a green, brown, black connector. Can somebody tell me how to test this thing to know if it is good? If I start the bike and disconnect the regulator to measure the current at the battery do I risk anything but blown fuses? Would this be a valid regulator test?
Somebody ask an easy question so I can make a contribution to this website.
