forklift I fear you entering the twilight zone. I too, like many on here (see the threads) have struggled with repeat dying batteries (honda blackbird). Its difficult to prove without hi tec gear (even then its not easy) but I believe the problem was a faulty reg/rec from charging flat batteries (I'll never bump or jump dead bikes again). One phase fails but the output voltage appears normal however the DC has an AC component that frazzles batteries. Maybe a second expert opinion would be useful?
