Title: What charges the battery?
Post by Savage = HD eater on 05/25/10 at 21:24:00

I know the Savage doesn't have an alternator but what charges the batter? My battery keeps running down. I've had a trickle charger on it but it still doesn't hold a charge. It's a fairly new battery. Any suggestions??

Thanks!

It has a 3 phase generator :-?
it's a generator cause it has magnets 8-)

yeah, still scratchin' my head too. :-/

a lot of new batteries are bad from the get go.
but if it ain't chargin' it ain't gonna keep up no how

take a volt meter, put it across the battery terms and rev the bike up... didn't you guys say 4 or 5000 rpm's? any who should go up in voltage.
