Question charging system check - values

Hi ,

I checked out the charging system to check RR as thought I might have a problem

Are these values ok :

across battery ( no engine running ) = 12.62v
bike running @ 2500 rpm = 14.43v
bike running @ 5000 rpm = 14.46v

Cheers Steve

Lights on or off?

Either way, look pretty good numbers from here

Agreed, those numbers look OK to me. How old is the battery, and was that voltage obtained after charging it?

battery is original and is almost 2 years and 27k miles old , not charged on charger just as is .

For some reason I thought I might have problems with my RR , must have read to many threads on here re RR woes

I even gave it a 10 min clean and greased the battery terminals

Cheers Steve
