I have an 08 yzf-r1 and about a month ago my stator melted and clipped half the magnets off my flywheel. I replaced the stator and flywheel and when turning it back on the battery voltage would drop fast. I replaced the battery (and had it tested) have tried two different rectifiers(oem and an upgraded) still no luck. After a full charge overnight the battery will drain and my dash go out after about 45 minutes of riding (with both headlights disconnected) and at idle, voltage slowly bleeds away. Im completely lost and by no means an electrician so any help would be greatly appreciated

I know my rectifier is is good, but my stator just took all the magnets off again, im thinking that press fit plate is in sideways so my stator is sideways and that keeps chewing through stators and flywheels
