ColinP, what led you to the conclusion that the rect/reg has failed?

Battery charging at 18v at 5500rpm and a fried battery, doing all the electrical tests the genny is fine and the rectifier rattles when shook as the internals of it have broken up.
fited a rect/reg from a yam YZF-R 125 - SH650A-12 reg/rec new battery and all good now.
Also a used 125 reg/rec is half the price of a R6/R1 reg/rec..

Any from 1999 - 2005 I think is ok.

5EB is the one I have.

I think they switched to a 6 pin or something after, no idea on if you can wire this up.

Another vote for the R125 one, just fitted one to my CBR600FY after the usual honda failure.
