Default Charging Problem

Hey folks,
I have a 2012 M50 that is not charging. The bike has approx 3500 kms on it. I have checked out both the stator and rectifier and all seen fine. Has anyone had any problems like this? It's possible that it's a wiring issue as I have checked the 30 amp fuse and it seems fine as well. Thanks in advance for any information

A shot in the dark here.
How old is your battery? Some of these smaller ones have a life of only about 3 years. Especially if left siting for long periods such as during winter months if you live in a place that has them.
I always keep mine on a battery tender when I'm not riding. Even for a week.
Hope you can get this figured!

Thanks for the reply. The battery is new, i has it load checked all good. I will have to start looking at the wiring from the regulator to the battery. Thanks

I had that problem with my m50 , swapped battery a couple times then replaced starter relay next to the battery. Problem solved.
