Same bike, same issue, same fix. Dealer did it under warranty. Internet forums are rife with complaints about this part. Sorry you had to go through this grief but thanks for the fine tutorial.

Thank you for your knowledge brother . thought my battery was bad until i replaced it 3 times .

every bike I ever had with charging problems it was the stator plate, when tested with a multimeter they seemed OK but when you put a stator plate in from a bike you know was good the problem vanished, often the wrong solder can cause problems and the insulation is not good enough and often the bike needs to heat up for the stator to start to malfunction, german and Japanese stator plates are the best I've found, the windings and the soldered connections are the best, but as I say testing with a multimeter often tells you everything is OK but under load and when hot they stop working properly, very hard to track those faults down without a stator off a bike you know is OK,

Thank you so much for detailed video ❤

Thank you for the info. I don't think I was experiencing that but now I know what to look out for.👍🏻

The procedure for checking a battery issue is the same for cars and motorcycles 1. you start with checking the battery voltage with vehicle not running using a multimeter - it should read 12.3 to 12.6 volts 2. if it is lower you must charge it with a battery charger until it reaches 12.3 to 12.6 Volts - if it won't charge the battery is weak note: if the voltage while starting drops below 11 Volts the battery is weak - a battery tester tool will confirm this 3. now that the battery is fully charged , start the vehicle and check the voltage while running - it should be 13.2 to 13.8 Volts indicating proper charging 4. if it reads the same as when it is not running , the charging circuit is not charging - troubleshoot charging components 5. in this specific case the Royal Enfield 650 has a known weakness with the rectifier failing this known issue is due to excessive heat due to the location at the lower rear of the engine causing failure many owners have fixed this issue by relocating the new rectifier to the front forks with an extension cable recommended YT videos Interceptor 650. Rectifier/regulator re-location summary kzread.info/dash/bejne/oYSGzpWxZdHXk6w.html email address is jamesengland1000@gmail.com also there is another known issue Symp: poor charging - no voltage at fuse box kzread.info/dash/bejne/g316x9aNmLubnMY.html Prob : corroded connector at starter motor solenoid fix: splice in new connector and seal with grease or tape also stators can fail but this is more rare and normally occurs on older bikes - see @sicks6six comment below hoping this is helpful for all RE 650 owners

Those pipes sound good.

Appreciate it!

This gives me such a Aprilia Tuono 1000 vibe.

This is the type of thing that stops me from buying a RE int650. The motor seems strong but if i have to rebuild the entire electrical system it hardly seems worth it. Wonder if RE will rectify the electrical weak points.

I like the mufflers sound and they look great. What kind/brand are them? Where can I buy them?

It is the Royal Enfield GT Continental 650cc S S AEW TE 102 Exhaust Silencer Pair. I got the bike with them so I didn't buy or install them. Looks like the cheapest place for me is ebay

great video: Old school = permatex RED only= heat /oil /and gas proof!!!!!! even use it as the gasket .. if scuff up with drill motor from walmart.. and wire wheel ! always wash hands with dawn to get oil off! Plus always finish the clean surface with paint thiner or carb cleaner in a pinch.. or wipe alcohol... want it fast dry /clean .. apply permatex thin as you possibly can!!!!! too much is Really bad .. plug up oil ports ! if bur- take it off with a knife hone! keeps it flat..

Is that the correct mileage ? and the system went bad ? I would expect this system to last much longer... as in 25000 or more.... I have a 2020 Interceptor that just turned 5200 miles... so far no issues. Thank you :)

I've read online it's an issue these REs face because of its placement. I sure expected it to last longer. Best of luck with yours

How do you undo that alternator plug? Mine seems hard to undo, not sure how its done

You need to pull up on the red clip. It is very snug. I thought I pulled it up enough at first and it wouldn't come out, still needed a little extra. See 1:42 in the video to see how it should look.

It's very unfortunate that's the case. When buying a bike this new it should be expected for the RR to last much longer.

to check the charging system put your volt meter on the battery, you will see a voltage increase when you start the engine.

Thank you for the comment! The reason I didn't do that is because I knew the battery wasn't charging. I was trying to check if it was the alternator bad or something in between.

@@TAMAdventures this is a way to check the alternator, you get 12.5 volts from a good battery, and if the alternator is working when you start the bike you get 13.75 to 14.5 volts. you got it, and your back on the road. 🤠

Yes first thing to do is test to see if the battery is charging. After that test the alternator for output. However my first suspect on a modern motorcycle would be the rectifier regulator. I had two RRs fail on a 2001 Triumph Bonnie. I replaced the third one with a Mosfet type. These are more expensive but MUCH more reliable. I modified a s/h one from a Yamaha something or other. Universal ones are available and they handle heat much better and would be my choice on the RE particularly as the RR is situated behind the motor rather than in the more conventional position out front and in the wind.

buy a nut ,or bolt opener.....save time.....opening a bolt with straight screwdriver with glove is sometimes slippery..go old school too...just buy bolt opener..

to check the alternator have you tried continuity (beep)test on the pins ? one terminal on the pin one on battery ground can do resistance check on the Regulator rectifier too.. kzread.info/dash/bejne/n6JqtNaplNDLgag.html
