Re: Follow up question

Thanks Water Warrior, I thought the same thing about the voltage recordings. Especially when upon further inspection the Side Stand plunger is working just fine, its just not sending the signal to cut the engine off. I am probably going to have to take it to a dealer to have some diagnostics run. I only have about 4 weeks before they come pick up my household goods to ship them to Germany for me and my bike will go with them. The overall problem is this: There seems to be a lack of charging going on. I went for a long ride (about 1.5 hours with 1 stop), and the battery completely died in the middle of road (luckily I was slowing down anyway) and after 3 hours of charging the bike had charged enough to start but died after a short drive around the block. Testing at the battery showed an output of 12.5V at idle and no change when I revved the engine. Ordered a new voltage regulator, installed it, and today the results are as posted above.
