The stator/regulator on the pre gen and new gen ninja's will output 14.7 volts at RPM above 3500 so it will charge either battery. You just got a bad one. Don't let this bad one throw you off a light weight battery. My Ducati 1098 race bike has a light weight battery in it (like the moty one) and has been there for 2 years with no issues, but I do keep it on a trickle charger when not racing. It also saved 7 lbs!!!!!!
