I know a guy who has a KZ650 which has one of the two phase stators (hope I got the terms right). It has two hot AC wires coming off the stator, in other words. He gets 12VDC at idle and about 12.5 VDC at 4K rpm. OK... I know a little about charging issues and this one has me stumped. He has changed stators, rewired correctly and changed regulators. Same issue. He tells me that his regulators have only the two stator connection wires, the black/yellow ground and the hot wire out; I think white/red which tees with the rectifier and goes to the main fuse and battery.
Should there be a sense wire such as a wire to connect to the brown sub-circuit to tell the regulator the voltage level to put out? Other than a sulfated battery, bad stator, bad regulator or bad wiring, any ideas on why this bike won't charge?
