Motorcycle Repair: 95 Honda CBR 600, honda cbr 600, rectifier unit


Question
I have a 95 Honda CBR 600. For some reason the battery won't stay charged. I can ride about 30 min before my battery is dead again. I replace the battery and the samething happen. Can you help me with this?

Answer
Considering the age of the bike and the short life span of new batteries, I'd say the regulator/rectifier unit is blown and is no longer keeping the battery charged. Call your local Honda dealer to see how much it will cost to have it replaced... and be warned, it could be expensive!
