Suzuki charging problems
The early 80's suzuki road bikes in the USA seemed to have a problem with charging systems. At the various bike shops I have worked at we got into the habit of replacing the stator and the rectifier/regulator when a bike had a charging problem. It seemed that once the regulator/rectifier or the stator went the other component was sure to fail. This wasn't just trying to pad the bill but to avoid another dead battery out on the road. And if your charging system does fail out on the road remember you can tie on a car battery and drive the bike a long ways especialy if you pull the headlight fuse.
