1979 cb750 Charging system

[Qotsa881]

i have a 1979 cb750 that isnt chargeing the battery properly ,it doesnt charge it at all when idling and very little when running faster. what would be more likely , the stator or recipricator? does anyone have electrical diagrams for this bike?

looked at some older posts , i'll try the fuse box first . i hope its not the rotor!!

Cold be the alternator brushes or the regulator ( easiest fixes ) , but the connections from the rectifier to the battery should also be checked / cleaned . --  Haynes manuals has a pretty good shop manual for these bikes . Cost is about 30 bucks . I bought one and have been satisfied with the data it contains . It has a chapter on the charging / starting system as well as wiring diagrams . Check with your local auto parts store for availability . -- Otto
