GENERATOR COIL RESISTANCE INSPECTION
• Remove the luggage box. (!5-2)
• Disconnect the generator coupler.
Measure the resistance between the three lead wires.
Also check that the stator core is insulated.
If the resistance is not specified value, replace the stator with a
new one.

( Tester knob indication: Resistance (Ω)
# Generator coil resistance: 0.3 – 1.1 Ω
NOTE:
When making above test, it is not necessary to remove the gen-
erator.
GENERATOR NO-LOAD PERFORMANCE INSPECTION
• Start the engine and keep it running at 5 000 r/min.
Using the multi circuit tester, measure the voltage between three
lead wires.
If the tester reads under the specified value, replace the gen-
erator with a new one.

# Generator no-load performance:
More than 60 V at 5 000 r/min (When engine is cold)
REGULATOR/RECTIFIER INSPECTION
• Remove the left frame cover. (!5-3)
• Disconnect the regulator/rectifier couplers.
Using the multi circuit tester, measure the voltage between the
lead wires in the following table.
If voltage is incorrect, replace the regulator/rectifier.
