ssray Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 I finished my first of 7 night shifts, get to the station around 0730, the bike ntv650 was felling a bit missy on the sparky front, i thought it may be fuel so i filled up, then dumped it at the petrol station i got a jump(start) and upon arrival home I whipped out my tester and at all revs from tickover to 7k its showing from 11.39 to 11.59, with the lights on its showing 11.18- having been awake for approx 27hrs i`m not going to rip it apart as i need it tonight any idea where to look first? the other day I repositioned one of the two earth wires to the frame and checked the connection for the reg/rec which looked cruddy on the bike side but clean and newish on the reg/rec side any simple ideas, apart from go to bed???

Mahatma Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 The usual suspects:Regulator,stator,and magnet.I would start in that order.If you know someone with the same model,just ask to try the regulator.You may get lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BudgetBoy Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 NTV 650 Revere 92-97 Coil primary resistance 2.2-2.6 ohms Secondary resistance 20000-25000 ohms Pick up coil resistance 450-550 ohms volts should be 13.5-15.5 @ 3000rpm battery YTX9-BS 12volt/8Ah ignition system is a TCI not a CDI if you need any other stats let me know. The low volts in your battery could be a bad cell in the battery, could be a old battery not holding charge.. But the fact that its not going up when you are revving it point to Reg/rec or alternator/stator .. i dont have tests for these in my book.. But check your battery terminals are clean and tight. EDIT:- if it is your reg then id buy a new battery while you are at it as it might have ruined it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssray Posted October 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 Battery was brand new 3 weeks ago, I have just found 3 yellow wires that have fused together and melted the plug, can I just reconnect them with bullet type connectors?

ssray Posted November 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 A chap from the ntv forum drove 65 miles to deliver some bits, then helped pull it apart and fit a new loom, it ran for a few seconds but we think that the cdi unit may have got damp the plugs had a spark then that went, will need to test the cdi but may be able to borrow one from a mate Cheers Ray got home from nights and back on tonight, sleep for wimps?
