Well someones got to pay for the new showroom.

But good news... its alive!

The guy at George White swapped the battery over without issue so top marks to him.

Had it set up and on charge for about 4 hours before starting it first time on the button. I still think there is something up with the charging system, but its Sunday evening and I have a loud exhaust so I'll annoy the neighbors tomorrow night, plus I'm on my way out.

But at least its running again, hopefully it will get me about tomorrow as I have plans...

Hopefully the fault is this easy to trace with Kates 125!

Good luck mate.

Tested the charging and the reg is putting 18 volts into it. So swapped that with a spare that will do around 11 - 13.2 depending on what electrics I have running, to me undercharging is a bit better then over charging as I can compensate for that at night and I'm only using it for short day runs at the mo. But that reg is goosed also so I need to find me yet another one.

Apparently Suzuki make them out of platinum hence the price so I need to find a pattern replacment...
