Hey guys - been awhile, hope you are all riding safe!
My 81 interstate was eating its battery but would start if I left it alone 4 an hour...I've soldered the stator wires per the how-to
Here on cgw - new battery is in - it ran all the way down today - wouldn't start leaving work, thank god I've learned to park uphill...
The battery is back on the charger, reading properly at 12.6 - it's on the trickle overnight.
The motor was rebuilt by the previous ( second) owner - well he had it rebuilt by a good shop. So I am afraid that the stator is the issue. Any good ideas on how I can troubleshoot? I've become pretty handy on this bike but I've never pulled a motor - am I totally screwed?
Thanks as always in advance and ride safe!
