check your voltage at battery with pocket meter when running to see if it is over above 12v. should be around 14v. is alternator/battery light glowing on dash when running? if reading is 12v take alternator off and have it tested before replacing to make sure that's it.

i drop the back cradle bolts and let the frame drop so you have acess to removing it. remove the belt, take off the 3 bolts, undo the wires after removing battery cable and remove the alternator.
