missus used to have a 06 gn250 rteg/rectifier died i replaced it with a mid 80's reg/rect $40
and never had a problem ever since
sold the bike for half a bengal stud last year

Trawled through some old threads but this will be quicker for me.

Got the girlfriend an '05 GN250, thought they are supposed to be reliable wee bikes good for learners. Anyway, managed about 1.5 hours of riding before battery drained and engine stalled.

Battery out, its brand new, charged it over night back up to 12.9V resting.

Battery in bike at idle/2,500rpm sits about 12.4v and at 5,000rpm sits about 12.2V so obviously not charging, if you put lights on etc it goes down further.

I'm trying to test the generator/ac stator but the photocopied manual has images which are too faded to see whats going on. Have included some images, is the plug I am holding the correct 3 wire plug that is coming from the stator/generator.

I have tried to get both an AC reading and a resistance reading across the 3 points but nothing at all on the multimeter.. so thought I had the wrong plug or something. It just doesnt register at all on the multimeter.

What else should I be doing to trace the problem.

And anyone have any parts avail? - the mrs is fairly bummed having saved and spent all the cash she had on the bike only for it to die on her an hour later and the prev owner not really going to come to the party in the way of helping with cash. bit of a bummer.

let me know if you need a manual

yea would like to buy any reg/rec to suit for that sort of price. Can't find one anywhere.. if anyone knows of a reg/rec avail let me know aye. I'v made parts wanted ad on here, and another thread plus this one looking for parts. nothing yet...

[Fast Eddie]

let me know if you need a manual

hehe, a fella said he had a stator and reg/rec from an 04 built.. should work on 05. I said i was keen - hoping he gets back to me haha havent heard back yet.

[Fast Eddie]

what do you fellas think of this. A stator for $15 bucks USA currency..

http://www.ebay.com/itm/260876843580...=p5197.c0.m619

15 bucks.. versus over 500 from suzuki..

the jew in me says take it, the other fella that sees its prob coming from dark china says 'will it even work? and if it does for how long?'

.... mmm

think we've narrowed it down to being the stator, hayd3n brought round a known working reg/rec and we plugged it in and still no charge

[Fast Eddie]

although these bikes are made in China arent they? probably the same bit they use in the factory..

[ducatilover]

Do it, that's an excellent price.
I'd be tempted to buy a few in and sell 'em on TardMe
