AnswerHi Lee.
Have you checked the regulator/rectifier as per the test specs in the repair manual? Is the battery holding a charge properly?
It seems to me that there isn't anything really too wrong with the bike.
Check the output from the stator as well. Match it against the specs in the manual and see what you find.
Good luck.
