Re: Stalling - Is it the reg or fan?!!

I had a look at the wiring diagram (thanks guys) for the stand/clutch switch circuit and while doing some parts sourcing I managed to find a brand new clutch switch from Honda for $25.00. Pick it up tomorrow so I'll let you know if anything changes. I have a feeling it won't have any effect on ...

Re: Stalling - Is it the reg or fan?!!

Ok, thanks Guys, Time to check out the stand and clutch switch. Took it out for a quick ride yesterday and she didn't miss a beat (no stalls) although the engine temp stayed well below 100.
