Charging Current

Verify all electrical accessories are turned off. Start the motorcycle. Verify the idle speed is 1,600 rpms. Set the digital multimeter to measure at least 10 amps of current (10 DCA).

Pull the main fuse and connect the multimeter between the two terminals of the fuse holder. Check the load current at an idle speed of 1,600 rpm. The charging current at 1,600 rpm should be 1.5 to 2.0 amps.
