Bikaholic,
I am having more problems. After your post, I decided to take a ride without the tripple headlights on thinking I don't have enought juice to charge and burn them. After about 10 minutes, the bike started to backfire at higher RPM's. Seems there's not enough juice to fire the plugs at higher RPM's. I didn't know if I was going to get home. Alas, I did. Is it possible that a problem battery could cause there to not be enought power even with the alternator turning? Again, I just got this bike so it's history is in question. Now, I have put about 150 miles on it since I got it. If the alternator was not putting out anything, there is no way that I would have been able to ride that long without the battery going dead.
Any thoughts?
Has anyone out there ever had an alternator go bad on a Vulcan Classic?
