    11.9 - 12V is no charge..... But as G3o says.... follow the smoke.

    thanks very much for the help and insight guys, I'm just giving my battery a full charge see what happens then. It smokes intermitently the smoke is blue and had no odor... it does it for about 2 seconds then goes as quickly as it came, and might not come back... really odd...

    Gooz production managers are the worst. I like them when they are giving me work. I was camera supervisor on some cage fighting for Channel five a couple of weeks ago.. I was treated like a god! Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii want more of those jobs!

    blue smoke is normally oil, changed it recently, some may have spilled on to the engine and is smoking when engine gets hot, failing that you may have a leak
    onwards and upwards and sometimes a little sidewards....

    be carefull not to turn it over too much as this can mess the Sprag clutch up, just another one of the fantastic things about owning one of these bikes lol

    Also look at getting the upgraded battery ttz14s-bs (i thinki) i bought 2 (ebay) cheap ones before i got mine, the amps per hour on the cheaper ones are only around 10, the upgraded ones are between 12 and 14 theres loads of stuff on it on RSVZONE

    Thanks everyone for the help and advice. The smoke looks like its coming from the valve cover gasket - it's bubbling and some oily deposits leaking and running down the head. Replaced the regulator. Still doesn't seem to hold its charge. It keeps fluctuating between 11.6 and 12.2 so feck knows. >
