Seem to be posting in here too much lately. I'm having a really bad run with vehicles at the moment. On the way to work this morning, the motorbike has developed a severe rattle, suspecting timing chain or a bearing somewhere, either way not good. So over vehicles.

hi guys,

this arvo, started the bike after being on center stand all day, checked the oil level... plenty. started it up, noise was there for about 5 seconds then made an indescribable noise and all of a sudden motor is purring again. drove it skeptically out on to the road, figuring noises and problems and just dont fix themselves on vehicles. sure enough, noticed the battery light on (i figure alternator, but was unsure it bikes even had alternators lol), and called in to the bike mech who rwc it 3 weeks ago. he wasnt interested in looking at it, but pointed me in the right direction for someone who was. rang him as he was 20 mins away, and surely a bike wouldnt last that long with no alternator, and the low beam headlight permanently on. he said check if its charging with a multi meter, sure enough it wasnt. convinced the mechanic i was at to take a look at it, and its now with him. have hired a bunnings ute to get be to and from work tomorrow. hopefully the other car im buying gets the rwc sorted soon and i can just start driving that!

Bikes dont have alternators like our cars mate, but have a read of this for bike charging systems.
