Default Re: Curvy K1 with diode bodge

Not too much to go on. I doubt very much if it's anything to do with charging. The charging circuit is a 3 phase alternator connected to a regulator/rectifier which feeds the battery - adding a diode isn't going to fix a problem if either unit fails.
The issues that tend to crop up on older bikes seem to centre around interlocks - the clutch switch and the sidestand switch circuits. The turn signal/sidestand relay has a couple of diodes connected to it but I don't know whether they are located within the relay or in the harness. Do your sidestand and clutch interlocks work as they should?
