Measure the whole wiring w/ Multimter (the cheapest digital model is enough to this job). Regulator/ rectifier is the main "suspect". Unregulated high volts F***ed the battery.

05-19-2013, 11:18 AMA parasitic draw is something that drains the battery while the ignition is off, for example if the headlight some how stayed on that would cause a parasitic draw. You can test for a parasitic draw using the current measuring mode on a multimeter, you dissconnect the wire from the positive battery and connect them together with the 2 multimeter probes. It will tell you if any current is being drawed from the battery. There are lots of good guides on Youtube on this subject.
You can also check that your charging system is working by measuring the voltage at the battery with the engine running, I think 14.7v is the ideal voltage.Sinnis Max II (QM125-2V), K157FMI engine (technically a K162FMJ now), 115 main jet, 40 pilot jet, cone air filter, 150cc big bore kit, 17 tooth front sprocket, 30mm carburettor, alarm with remote start, HID spotlights, performance CDI.
