Voltage Regulator???

[beatsthejaps]

As some of you already know, ive been chasing electrical issues on my xb9s for a couple weeks now. And the other night it came home on the back of my truck after leaving me stranded. So I came home from work today and I figured I would mess with it. Jumped it and got it running so I put my tester on the battery and watched it as it idled. Was charging at 14.83 as it idled but did not change with more rpm's. So I let it just sit and idle in my garage as I watched the meter and after about 10 minutes it just shut down (like it did to me the other night). And when I pushed the start button, nothing but clicks. Would this be the VR? And if so, anyone got one for sale for a 2003 xb9s? Thanks alot

Got 2 that fit your bike, tested both and the are giving the same readings that mine does so they are working. Pm me or text me. I sent you my number.

check the plug on the VR. i had an issue to where my bike was not charging the battery and would go dead while i was riding it (well when i would come up to a stop sign or light). i check every thing and the pins inside the plug were a little melted and would make contact when it was on the stand and with out the chin fairing. once i would bolt everything up it would then loose connecting. i cleaned up the plug and replaced two of the pins and when i put it all back together i made sure that plug was in a good spot and not be pulled apart or being pushed to one side. the bike has been fine ever since. i even bought a new battery thinking my battery was bad since it was the orginal one and same thing. fixed the plug and put on the old battery. good as new

Mc4life, no plug left on mine. Hard wired it. With all the issues these plugs have, ive eliminated it in hopes that was the problem. Obviously wasnt the issue though haha. Thanks

Does this sound like the VR or the stator?

Waiting for my regulator now to try that. Thanks ahead of time buellxb9rs!
