Does anyone know how I can tel if the charging system is working in my 2008 VTX 1300R. I replaced the Battery in the begining of the season and today I went out to start it and all I got was Click Click Click. How can I tell if the alrtenator and recipricator are working? also should my cooloing...

I want to add a headlight modulator to my 1300. But is there any medium-to-long-term risk of damage to the electrical system - particularly the charging system - because of the cycling load of the modulator? Thanks guys.
