The regulator/rectifier circuit board may have absorbed moisture during storage under high humidity conditions which reduced the strength of the adhesive used to fix the circuit board to the outer casing. Due to the insufficient adhesion the heat generated can cause the circuit board to deform and lift away from the case. This condition causes excessive heat and uncontrolled electric current output which can result in the poor charging to the battery. This can cause the battery to discharge and lead to engine stalling and/or a no-start condition.

V650SY · oil pump could draw air into oil pump inlet - engine failure may occur
9 Feb 2000 · RM/2000/003
There is a possibility that the oil pump could draw air into the pump inlet during certain engine running conditions. As a result it may not deliver adequate lubrication to the engine resulting in damage to the con-rod big end bearing. If major damage did occur to the big end bearings this would be accompanied by abnormal engine noise and in the worse case sudden engine failure possibly causing the rear wheel to momentarily lock up disturbing the riders ability to control the motorcycle.
Fix: Recall affected machines and fit oil guide plate.
