Checks and inspections
Battery recharge circuit
The recharge system is provided with a three phase alternator with permanent flywheel.
The alternator is directly connected to the voltage regulator.
This, in its turn, is connected directly to the ground and the battery positive terminal passing through
the 30A protective fuse.
This system therefore requires no connection to the key switch.
The three- phase generator provides good recharge power and at low revs, a good compromise is
achieved between generated power and idle stability.
Stator check
Checking the stator windings
WARNING
THIS CHECK-UP CAN BE MADE WITH THE STATOR PROPERLY INSTALLED.
1) Remove the door in the saddle compartment.
2) Disconnect the connector between the stator and regulator with the three yellow wires.
3) Measure the resistance between each of the yellow terminals and the other two.
Electric characteristic
Resistance:
0.2 - 1
Ω
4) Check that there is insulation between the each yellow cable and the ground.
5) If values are incorrect, replace the stator.
