You may have a short somewhere, or maybe your new battery is no good. It should be reading 12+ volts. There could also be a problem with the charging system. Check the output from the charge wire coming out of the regulator/rectifier.

yes Mr dirtdemon, regardless of what the original problem is/was the "new" battery is flat.

The bike most likely is not charging as he must have gotten a new battery to try to fix it.

Also once pulled started, the bike should have taken a 9v battery up to a nice 12v in a few seconds if it was charging normaly.

Mr kingquad2430, when you tested your battery and it said 9v. are you able to test the battery volatage when you pull start the bike and make the bike idle?

if you get it to start, make the bike rev at about 4 to 5 thousand RPM and tell us the voltage you see.

it should be at a minimum 13.4V up to 14.5V while the bike reving.
