I posted this in the wrong place I think the first time. We have a Panther 110 and the battery never charges. Is there suppose to be a charger on this thing or should I use a trickle charger?

Great site!

Thanks!!

That is the same bike i got my son. It does have an on boaed charging system that should be able to keep a good battery charged. From what i have been told & seen the batteries are the weak link. You should have gotten a 110 volt battery charger with the bike (I got 1 with all 3 bikes) if you got 1 hook it up until the red light goes out & the green light comes on. It should have a good charge then. If it doesn't hold the charge replace the battery & you should be good to go.

Hope this helps............................................. .............DF1

 

Thanks, I took it to the shop and bought a new battery and a charger that is made for it. We will see. Thanks again for your help.

How many wires are comming out of the stator side of the motor, that would be the shifter side?

 

There is no shifter on this one. There are 2 wires coming from the left side of the motor, I am assuming that is the magneto. I will put a tester on the battery while it is running to see if there is any charge at all coming out.Thanks for the reply!

No need, you don't have a charge coil under the flywheel. You will need to install a charge coil and rectifier and maybe a new flywheel cause the one you have might not have the magnets for the charging coils in it.
That is why I left the ? at the end cause I was unsure if you have a CVT type motor
