200es wont start

[bob 200es]

Ive had my 200es for 2 years with no problems .Ive put on fenders new carb painted the racks, every now and then my battery will go dead(new battery) when I use my sprayer on the back. And sometimes after a long time ill have to charge it. any help would be great

I'm no expert on this, but I believe they have a charging circuit and an ignition circuit in the wiring. I'd say that your charging circuit is barely charging. I recommend getting or downloading a manual and testing the components. If you just want advice on a part to throw on it, I'd try the regulator. Caution...just buying parts and installing them can cost a lot of money. That's why I recommend the manual and test method.

I agree,
This sounds like a job for the trusty "free with purchase" multimeter from Harbor Freight!
