    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Have a FH009 in my 750,works great.Stock one is the same one JonnyC has in his picture.They still come up cheap on eBay but people have figured out there's a demand so prices have gone up.If you can get it cheap go for it Jonny.

Stock placement on the 750 is a little tightwith the FH so can't use those connectors.Would if I could!
 
Thanks guys. I bought one for $30 shipped. Hopefully it's in working order! I'm excited to rewire my bike from scratch and do it right.
 
Has anyone gone for one of these complete kits?
Im thinking of just spoiling my little one with a brand newy!

If you are considering a new R/R of that size and price, why not do yourself (and your bike) a favor? :-k

The R/R for a 2011 Polaris Ranger is the same size and wiring, but is a SERIES regulator, like the Compufire, and is available BRAND-NEW for less than $68 (plus shipping, of course.

.
 
It does Matchless and ask me how I know;)
That's cool Steve,now watch them go WAY up in price.
 
Not sure if it's on the list, but a Shingenden sh232-12 9.0 from a Honda CM400 works beautifully.

My personal favorite (been around since before 1980 ), but inferior to Steve's SH-775 R/R - a series type might just be a stator saver! First one that I've seen at that price, new or used.
 
That news would have been well worth it two weeks ago Steve... new R/R is already installed.

Thanks though ill keep in mind next time.

Has anyone tested it independently as yet? I run one of those but I would like to see someone scope one to see if it really is series.... :)
 
What would you reccomen I use then?
I'd look for the SH-775 -if that $70 price is real ! otherwise get any Shindengen off list, they have been proven rugged.The pic you posted seems to be of a R/R with small heat sink capacity.
 
Cheap like me?
How about this one for $15? comes with two grounds and two positive feeds!

Will that R/R work on a 81' GS450L? My daily driver started crapping out on my headlight and when I checked the voltage at 5k rpm through headlight socket it was reading between 16-17v
This shuts off my headlight everytime I go over 2500 rpm, would this solve the problem more than likely?
