I'm hoping maybe someone out there has had this problem: With a new and a freshly-charged battery (happened 2x) my 93 ST1100 starts and runs great until it starts sputtering like its running out of gas and finally dies completely - at which point the battery is totally dead. First time I took a chance it was the battery and replaced it - started and ran fine, but the next timne I went over about 20 minutes it did the exact same thing. This time I had to have it towed to my local dealer, where its been for 2 + weeks because they can't figure out (or recreate) the problem. Alternator is putting out 13.5 VDC, and seems to be working fine. Today they are going to run it longer to see if they can get it to die again, and maybe find the problem.
Has anyone out there had this problem with their ST? I really appreciate any advice. I usually do all my own work, but when it comes to electrical I tend to be pretty clueless.
Thanks.
