When you get it started take it to autozone or kragen they can wheel a machine out to the car and test the starting system and charging system for free.
It can be your alternator. Did you know that when the car is running, the alternator is meant to be the sole source of electricity to run everything? The battery is only there to initially power up the car and crank it over. Once started, the alternator takes over supplying power to run the car.and charge up the battery .But if the alternator is not working, the battery supplies the power till it runs out of sufficient voltage, and the car will die. Does your alternator/battery light go off as it should, after engine is running? If not, you have a charging malfunction and need to test the alternator If the alternator is good and is charging the battery back up every time it runs, then you have an ignition problem, not a battery or alternator problem. Good luck, and hope you find the problem.
Its dying because the battery is not being charged, and it takes power to run the ignition pak to run motor and electrical systems. I would have the alternator checked out as that seems to be the most obvious problem,only other solution is battery will not take a full charge. usually if the alternator is charging it will supply the power to run the car, but if the battery wont take a charge then it will not have enough power to start the car or run the voltage that the ignition needs to operate. solution is bad battery or bad alternator.
How do you temporarily resolve the problem Pete?
Do you re-charge the battery or ???
Does it still crank the engine over with the electric start while in the 'failed' state after the 30 min run, just not fire the engine?
Are you doing the spark test with the electric start or kick start?
If charging the battery makes it run OK again for the the 30 mins, that is indicator the charging system is bad and you are running in 'total loss' mode of the battery. When it becomes discharged there is insufficient power to run the bike. You may still have enough power to pass a spark test if tested briefly.
If you can measure the voltage across the battery when the bike is running, that would identify whether the charging system is good - you should get at least 13.5V at the battery.
If not, you may have a stator and/or regulator/rectifier failure.
is common for the usb port to go bad on these models and many others...start the gps and go to the system setting then power, with the gps pludded into a known good charger, you should see the power meter moving from left to right. if it is not moving, its not charging unless ofcourse the battery is fully charged. and i would suspect the usb port is damaged.
Since is shows it as charging then your power cable should be working. So it looks like a battery issue but batteries just don't die unless a cell inside dies then they will stop working. Try taking the battery off and making sure that the connections are clean then put it back in. If that doesn't work give the battery a good full charge then bring the battery and laptop back to where you bought it and get them to test the battery to see if a cell died.
