The easiest way is to put a multimeter set above 20 volts on the battery terminals. Have a friend start the bike and rev the engine. The multimeter should show at least 12 volts at idle but not more than 17. When the throttle is revved, the meter should show at least 14 to 17 volts. Anything over 17 means a bad regulator. Anything under, or voltage not rising with throttle indicates a bad rectifier. If both test good and your tested good battery still goes dead, it's a bad stator.
Take a voltmeter and hook it up to the battery posts and read what the voltage is. It should be 12 volts or more. Now start the motorcycle and check the voltage, if it goes up, it's charging. If not, check the battery to make sure it is not dry.
Most 12 Volts
No
Check the battery voltage, bike not running. Start the bike (crank the rpm's up a little), voltage should be a couple of volts more than battery voltage. Check both voltage (running and not running) at battery terminals. Charge voltage isn't all though, if it doesn't stop charging when it should it will boil the battery dry. If you are having this symptom, it's for sure the regulator
Usually 12 Volt
To test a motorcycle stator, first, disconnect it from the motorcycle's electrical system. Use a multimeter to check the resistance between the stator's terminals; it should match the manufacturer's specifications. Next, test for shorts by measuring the resistance between each terminal and the stator's ground; there should be no continuity. Finally, perform a voltage output test by starting the engine and measuring AC voltage at the stator terminals; it should produce voltage within the specified range when revved.

On a 1976 Moto Guzzi T3 motorcycle, the voltage regulator is typically located under the seat, mounted to the frame. It is positioned near the battery and the electrical components for easy access and wiring. Make sure to check the specific wiring diagram for your model, as there may be slight variations.
No it will not; Need to check MAP sensor, coolant sensor, fuel pressure regurlator Mass air flow sensor if it has one. IS CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON ??? If so scan engine with scanner. GOOD LUCK.
The voltage rectifier is on the left side of the motorcycle just in front of the rear tire.
