Ok thanks. I got a new battery. Now its doing it agsin. Any other thoughts.
It ran for a day. Now its clicking again.
My 2 cents, from another noob
get a charger, charge the battery out of the bike
next day, turn charger off, use volt meter (home depot $5), check 12-14 v
install in bike, before turning anthing on, voltage should read the same, if not short on bike or corrosion.
turn key on, should read at least 12 v
if it starts, read voltage over 12v closer to 14 your good, allow it to idle, check it every min. ensure voltage is not dropping,
if voltage dropping, rev the engine and watch meter does it rise or continue to drop? (possible 2 person thing)
>>expert throw you advice here<< (I dont know all the techie stuff on a blast)
could also be a bad siliniod?
I don't think it's a solenoid or relay.
It sounds like it's your stator is not charging. Unplug the stator from the Voltage Regulator. Check each pins' (on stator-side of the plug) continuity to ground, there should be none at all. Check continuity between the two pins and compare to the specs in the Factory Service Manual.
If the stator checks out ok...check the voltage regulator per the FSM instructions.
