Part 1
Got the bike back in my garage. Put a trickle charger on the battery overnight and next morning, it started just fine. BUT at 3,000 rpm, it was only getting 11.5 volts.
=(
It's time to dig into the alternator.
It is the original alternator. That means it is 17 years old, in 1996 I was still living in Waco, TX.
The brush on the back side is stuck.
Brushes are not at the minimum height of 1.8 mm. I will be ordering the pair this week.
