At Road Atlanta, my R1 wasn’t charging the battery.
I just got a chance to look deeper into the issue. I tested all the resistances, they were fine. I was thinking it may actually be a bad voltage regulator. It would start fine with a fully charged battery but I couldn't get any higher voltage reading at the battery or any voltage on the leads going into the voltage regulator, while running and holding around 5K rpm.
Immediately when I got the generator cover off, I could see it was really bad and I asked Michelle to video it. I just put the cover back on and need to read the manual a bit more to see what may have been chewed up. Any ideas on this?
