Assuming this is a 14 V charging system, the
battery voltage should be close to 14 V
while the bike is running.
It will be ~ 12.5 V when the motor is off, up to 14.5 V
while just started, and once the
battery is topped off by the alternator the
voltage will drop to around 12.5 - 13.0 V for warm running.
Now this produces AC current which is sent through a Rectifier to be converted into DC
voltage and that is sent to the
battery to be recharged, most of the electrical things on your car run of the

voltage while the engine is being restarted, neatly tucks into the trunk's side wall without encroaching on space.
The important thing to remember is that the diodes used in an automotive alternators are actually TVS diodes that clamp the
voltage to a maximum of 32 - 40 Volts in the event that the
battery goes open circuit
while the alternator is at full load.
The light acid on top limits plate activation, promotes corrosion and reduces the performance,
while the high acid concentration on the bottom makes the
battery appear more charged than it is and artificially raises the open circuit
voltage.
As a rule of thumb
battery voltage shouldn't drop below 9v
while cranking.
Regenerative braking uses the electric motor to harvest kinetic energy
while braking, converting it to electrical energy that is used to recharge the high
voltage battery.
The high -
voltage battery takes 5.8 hours to fully charge via a 230 - V, 10 - A connection
while an optional 7.2 kW on - board charger and a 230 - V, 32 - A connection reduce charging time to 3.6 hours.

while driving to maintain a constant level of charge in the high -
voltage battery.
While for serious stuff a Fluke is worth more than a billion cheap Chinese multimeters, having 3 or 4 of the latter will be immensely more useful than a single top brand one because seeing in real time the
battery voltage and what develops around a
voltage divider when you change the resistors ratio has no price.
This coupled with a higher
voltage than competitors does allow the standard to expedite charging time,
while preventing overheating and ensuring
battery safety.
The key difference between the two fast charging technologies is that
while Qualcomm uses higher
voltages to charge
batteries, VOOC relies on delivering a higher amperage.
