- June 04, 2009, 23:54:30 PMdear drifter800 thanks,
how do i see engine rpm...my old lady 99s model...she hasnt got any rpm tachometer(or what)...should i idle speed up to top level maybe it will be full rpm performance...
somewhat apart i've got another question...when i do it what drifter800s say it then how do i test battery's amperage when engine running...
what is the true amperage?
please show me the way of teaching drifter repair....

- June 04, 2009, 22:34:17 PMTest the battery with a voltmeter ,engine running about 2000 rpm. Should have at least 13.5. If battery is good, i'd certaintly look at the recticifier, maybe the connection plug for corrosion.Simple stuff first, right guys?

- June 02, 2009, 13:03:22 PMYeah, as indicated unless someone has moved it to the front. If this is bad, the battery will eventually discharge even while the engine is operating. I had the same problem on a harley...
Cheers.

- June 02, 2009, 06:55:24 AMThe rectifier is that thing that looks like a heat sink on the lower left side of the bike, in front of the rear tire. The wiring runs inside the engine cover just in front of it. On a '99 it might be run in a different way since you don'r have the chrome engine cover. The rectifier is in the same spot though. I've highlighted it in this pic........
