I so very much appreciate all of your suggestions. Thank you. I will try all of them and report back. I'm a bit delayed trying to finish a bit of work on my KLX250, near completed.

Thanks @Weegie, I'll reference your numbers and do this again. 15 V AC @ 1k RPM 40 V AC @ 3k RPM 80 V AC @ 6k RPM

Hmmm, so I didn't consider changing the rotor. I did clean it a bit, before reassembling the new stator, looked good. I did fully change the battery (lithium), and it's been sitting on the bench for three days, let me go measure now… 13.43.

the stator is the alternator. https://www.electrosport.com/collections/street-motorcycles-moto-guzzi-2003-v11-sport

Admin: starting a new thread, merge if needed. I was stranded on the freeway this past weekend, dead battery. The system is doing the same as it has been for some time, in spite of all new items. It began over a year ago by melting the 30a fuse holder. I replaced it with a circuit breaker per forum suggestions, and it breaks often. Regardless of rpm, just over 13v is all that happens. I guess there is a harness drain/short/problem. Although I have inspected it numerous times, I will begin again. Thoughts, suggestions?

Aside from theft, in particular my KLX250 would benefit from an airtag. If I were to get lost, broken-down, etc, it might prove invaluable.

I just watched a recent episode of Itchy Boots, and her bike is stolen in Iraq, but a tracker located it and thus recovered. I think I'd like to do the same, but have no experience with these. Any suggestion of brand?

No exaggeration, well over 500!

… machining talk. We need an adapter to screw onto the tank, then purchase an alternative petcock. 20m female to 16m male, I believe is the way to go. We need to look for a petcok with the larger hose barb to complete the vision.

It's been some time since I went to this show. Frankly, it's mostly cars, but today I needed a ride. I show up and there's something like 300 cycles parked in a row. Granted, mostly all Japanese, mine was the only Guzzi. I met an Englishman now living in SC that owns a Coppa and a Greenie. Maybe he's on here as well? Hope to see him there again, maybe some others on this board that are local.

Ohh, you DO have some goodies for sale! I'd be interested the manual petcock, but I'm guessing it doesn't work.

I've been using a generic version of this tool for over two decades, for both cars and bikes. It's awesome and easy. https://www.amazon.com/Motion-Pro-08-0143-Hydraulic-Bleeder/dp/B000MXW2EM?source=ps-sl-shoppingads-lpcontext&ref_=fplfs&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&gQT=1
