    78 GS550E r/r question

    I have a seperate rectifier and regulator. In reading through these posts I see there is a Honda replacement that will replace both of these components. How do I know wich one to buy? What info do I need etc.? Thanks

          Several people have replaced the dreaded separate regulator and rectifier with a Honda unit. The main advantage is it will outlast the bike and for most applications it bolts into the existing holes.

                      Please read the link...
                      Blue highlighted ones are suitable for the GS
                      or as Pos suggested, buy one of the duanage kits. it will be all you need, and most likely the best $40 you will ever spend.

                      Welcome to the GRS!, your head will explode with all the information you will ever need, for fixing and maintaining your GS. (your turn Basscliff)
