Why is my Suzuki GSX-R Battery not charging?
My new battery gave a 11.7 volt reading at idle, and then while revving, the voltage dropped, it did not raise up as it should. Which means, the bike is no longer putting a charge back into the battery. So, I have concluded there could be two problems.

What happens when the stator on a motorcycle goes bad?
The stator on a motorcycle is basically an alternator, just in a simpler form. The role of the stator is to charge the battery while the motorcycle is on. When a stator has gone bad, that means the motorcycle is running off of battery power alone which will quickly drain it.
What causes a motorcycle battery to shut off?
Some newer motorcycles will shut off if a battery cable vibrates loose. This is a defense mechanism engineered in order to prevent the cable from hitting a ground and causing a spark. This usually results in a sudden shut-off from the motorcycle. The battery’s main role on a motorcycle is to get it started.
