Dong Fang DF 250 RTB Bobber Information

[axa]

on the battery topic, while to doubt these are cheap batteries, im on 1.5 years and 1500 miles, and have to do a combo starter/bump start all the time... I want to put a nice small lithium iron battery but am hesitant.

i've bench tested 2 R/R, and found while they regulate, they do not produce a well rectified DC component from the stator.
I'm waiting for some confirmation from the hoard on this.
But right now I assume any battery will not be well maintained over the long term with a bunch of short energy bursts as it receives with this R/R.

I'm guessing no battery will last as long as it would have with a better generator.
but again what do I know.
