Hi folks. I have got a charging problem with my VFR. I think I have got to the bottom of it but am a bit of a novice with electrics so if possible would like to discuss with someone who knows a bit about bike electrics so that I can run by them what I have done and my conclusion (nothing binding of course).

My problem is that my bike isn't charging the battery. I have carried out various checks as per the Haynes manual and now believe that my alternator is kaput and possibly also my rectifier.

Would be good if I could possibly have a chat with someone who knows about such things and I would fully explain from there.

Any help would be greatly appreciated before I embark on buying new parts

Cheers
Bernie
