Alright before you write "DID YOU CHECK THE BATTERY" read below.

As I've had other charging problems before I followed the charging system bible:

https://nsr-world.com/workshop/wiring/electrex-fault-finder/Electrex_fault_finding.pdf

and this is the results I got.

Battery when cranking drops only to 11.4 volts.

Battery with the bike turns off shows 12.7 volts.

If I bump start my bike the engine puts out 14.4 volts when revving.

All the stator windings read the about same Ohms and at about 0.7 Ohms.

All the stator outputs are putting out the similar voltage above 50 volts AC.

There are no shorts on the RR and it passes all the tests.

WTF am I missing? I even checked the main fuse and it tested for continuity just fine.

This is driving me nuts and if I have to bump start this sumbitch for another week for commuting I'm going to be really tired.

I also refuse to throw parts at it when they are testing fine, am I looking at this wrong? Is this not a charging problem? Is something else wrong with the bike?
