Does this still sound like the battery or has the rectifer packed it in?
If the engine was running at the time then it sound like ...
1) the battery is not taking any charge..and is knackered ( get it Discharged tested at a local garage - should only take about 5-10 seconds to tell - if the battery is left on charge over night and a low slow charge)
2) the rectifer pack is knackered and not giving the battery charge.


did the headlight go brighter at higher rev's ?
