2018 DRZ400SM, 5200 Mi
Went on a 120 Mile loop and stopped after 40miles to stretch legs, went to start back up and no luck and to bump start and made it to closest Oreilllys with them telling me my battery is shot. Bump started it again and went back home with flickering screen every 15 secs which never told me how fast I was going. Couldnt get power to come on with key on, Checked rectifier (still good), Bought new battery still no power so I thought to charge the new battery and finally got it after 6 hours to start.. IMO thinking stator is bad so ordered a new stator..
Went to my local dirt bike shop to have them swap stator and see whats going on to which they told me they couldn't duplicate the problem after riding it for 1hr and 45 mins... and told me stator and rectifier is good and so is battery so I decided to ride it about an hour in on highway and then had it happen again, went back home and turned off and tried to turn back on, NO POWER
Any wisdom from you knowledgeable folks?
