Hi
is this a dead rec/reg???... Traveling home from work with the lights on and the bike starts to jerk, switch to park beam and it's ok as soon as i switch to normal beam the bike splutters and jerks and wants to die. ??
If so what replacement can i use? Ive heard the one off an R6 is a better one to use.

Have a search. I had some probs with mine and got loads of help. The thread was called 'help!! do i need a new reg/rectifier'.

Good Luck
AL

have you got a multimeter?
get the battery charged up fully then do some simple checks.....

1st check what the charge rate is...@5000rpm it should be 13.5-15.5volts

now if the reg rec is gubbed then the volts should actually drop instead of rising.

Rick Oliver is the man to speak to about getting a replacement. He gets heavy duty ones. He's a member on here so send him a PM or email...

Thanks jo , but i live in South Africa.
The exchange rate would kill me 16:1
I can get a R6 Reg\Rec for R400 , (+- ₤25)
from a local guy.

if it turns out to be the reg rec faulty then that is your best option!!!!!!!!

this is where the "location" part of your profile comes in handy so we know where you are!

not everyone will pick up on the SA in your name.
