Title: Amperage?
Post by mornhm on 11/17/05 at 13:27:11

What is the rating for the rectifier/regulator on the Savage? What is the normal current draw?

I'm looking at heated clothing, and can't find this information on site.

Nobody may know...  Uh, when I asked a similar question regarding the ignition, Greg_650 said check the fuses, which I have not done yet.  The rectifier can put out at elast 6 Amps, which would go to the headlight.  I'm willing to bet the ignition will suck 20 A or so, but that's just a guess.

mornhm - nothing is listed in the suzuki service manual up though the '90 model as to capacity or normal draw - only the test points to check if it's working - so far as I can find.

20 amps sounds high for the ignition, 20 A would be more like the total output.
I suspect it is not much different than other midsize bikes, if memory serves it shares parts w/ the GS750.
