I guess it won't be a straight swap job

That will do, not a straight swap but not e every difficult one either.

You'll need to cut the honda plug off and use 5 standard sized female spade connectors (insulated ones!).

Stick with a honda one at your own risk.

Honda can build fantastic bikes, but still has trouble with reg/recs!

point taken...so would any year r6/r1 reg fit???

Just make sure its a 5 pin and not a 6 pin R6 rectifier and you will be ok (not the later models in other words, just ask the seller when you come to purchase one.)
