Regulator????
04/24/09 at 04:56:07

I've just registered the bike and put her on the road all legal like. I took the bike to work yesterday, then over to Cambridge, MA. All in all a round trip of about 60 miles. On the way home last night as I was slowing down for a red light the engine faltered and died. When I tried to start it there was not enough juice in the battery to turn the engine over, even though it was fully charged at the beginning of the day. I'm thinking "regulator", any thoughts?

As yet, a Bog Standard '87 with a big arse Harley muffler.
