My bike has developed a charging problem as of late.....stator shows good a/c voltage, rises steady with rpm as it should....only getting 12.73-12.86 DC volts at battery when running and reving engine....battery actually shows an even 13 volts with the engine OFF....changed regulator....exact same readings....go ride for a while and about the forth hot stop, starter will not engage, solinoid just clicks.....but it will jump off all day so I think starter is ok....Bike has only 2300 miles on it...previous owner purchased new and only put 816 miles on it so it was parked alot....but the records he passed along indicate it was still very well maintained....battery was replaced about a year ago...but I don't know if he maintained it on a tender although one did come with it.....any suggestions???? Thanks....
