[QUOTE="TomInPA, post: 1152496, member: 21394"] Your bike is not charging at an optimal rate, and it could be the battery, rectifier, or resistance in the harness. Before starting my bike shows 12.8-13.1 VDC. During operation without significant electrical loads, the bike will show 14.0 - 14.2 VDC. With the fan on, the voltage drops to 13.8, and I modulate the use of accessories to stay above 13.4 VDC at all times during operation. Like you, I use the X50 radar detector for a voltage meter, so I can only assume, you have other issues... We all ride FJR's and post on a forum, I guess we all have other issues. I assume we have at least established the O.P. does not have a problem outside of worrying too much? [/QUOTE]
