i had the same problem with my fathers 4x4, it may be the fuel filter or a blockage resricting the fuel flow.

because the way the quad acts tricks the system into thinking that it is in reverse whilst trying to go forward so flashs the reverse light?

The flashing reverse light is a fault warning system that goes wrong quite often and just flashes for no bloody reason.... could be linked to your voltage prob, if not enough charge being made by bike, cdi will shut down and bike will die, or could just need carb cleaning out, 660 is prone to carb problem's,.....

Grae I think your right when I put on the new battery fully charged there was no probs!
there's still a charging prob as the battery went flat last night and the reverse light started flashing??
I've put on a new battery what is the next thing to look at as far as the charging probs concerned!

How do you mean, "you think i'm right" of course i'm right, nae doubt in my mind whatsoever...... Next up to check is wiring to and from battery, good connections and clean tight as appropriate. start engine, about half revs with the lights all ON!!!! charging rate at battery terminals should be around 13.2v or higher upto 14.4v if its lower or higher first place to look is regulator rectifier unit, see if you can swap it with someone else with same bike..... voltage going into regulator rectifier should be somewhere over 16v - 17v if voltage going in to it is low, its time to fit a new stator assembly.... £££££

There is another option Ant has got Grae, and that's to part ex the bike, whilst its still running, against a new one.

With lights on at half revs I'm getting 12.2 v
haven't tested regulater yet!!

Its not charging, 12.2-12.4v is standard battery voltage. swap the regulator with a known good one if you can.....
