Evening, had bike for 3 months now, and love it, feels like riding a real bike again after 4 years on a 660XT, had CCT's and service done by Sir Tony.Mon of Kemsing highly recommended. New to the whole forum thing, so need to dip toe in to post and not just watch! Might have to see if any rides out locally, as I'll confess I'm also a cycling Richard at the weekends, so apologies

Careful that could get misconstrued.

Welcome to the forum. Have fun.

Welcome to the club If you have already met tony then there is not much else that will frighten you on here

Cycling and light weight upgrades are becoming a problem in my house too

welcome to the forum mate, tony is our eccentric uncle with a strange sense of humour, totally harmless of course......

I can, however, read the date on a year-old-plus thread.....or do my beady old eyes deceive me?

[Ges]

Tony, don't worry about your eyes, just trying to up my posts so could PM you about ongoing Rectifier problems

[fabiostar]

welcome to the forum sir..

[tony.mon]

Aha.

Just post it up on here as a new thread in workshop.

But reg rec problems are covered on here regularly, and there's not much to add except that a voltmeter gives you early enough warning to know when volts go high or low.
If high you will mostly need a new battery as well.

If battery is suspect, volts can seem ok at 12-ish but drop to less that eight or nine while cranking- then it's new battery time.
