A call to Rich at Luigi Moto seemed to confimed my suspicion it is likely to be rectifier failure, and after a call to Craig at Motorapido I realised being a 1997 ST2 I may be in for £200+ for a new one (the later, 1999, rectifier is only £70). Electrexworld dont have any pattern parts at the moment ("it is being redesigned") although I need to check because at the time I thought I was looking for the later part.
Any advice on whether this behaivour sounds like a rectifier would be appreciated. Plus any potential alternative to the £200+ cost for new one.
I am really hoping it isnt a generator failure, as this is nearly £700!!
The bike is in the Chippenham /Bath area

Is it a 2 yellow wire one or 3 ? I have a 2 wire one on the bay at the moment.
I could pull it if you want it ?
