You would have made a good test pilot, but I can understand your reservations. Someone else will have to be the guinea pig....it would be interesting to see how they perform.

 

The Electrex RR23 came in the mail today. Yippe! I have to wire in the new harness plug. Question: There are 3 yellow wires. Does it matter how I match yellow to yellow?

 

no yellow in any order

 

Thanks flatblack! As much as I would love to wire it in today, I cant. Gotta take step son atv and dirt bike riding. Then later, my brother will be in town from Ohio.

 

For what it's worth Ronnie ....... I made note of the yellow sequence when I did mine
and copied it to the new plug in same order ...... but that's just how I am sometines

 

I'm getting all queasy thinking about these R/R's again. They seam to fail in bunches. It takes about a year without hearing about one failing and then the problem flares up again. In the spring I plan on replacing mine because of all this talk of R/R's failing and leaving you stranded in places where you can get raped. It scare the hell out of me.

Trout can leave his stock but I don't want to be left in a bad place.

I think page #2 in the how to section covers R/R's.

 

After mine went out I realize how important it is to have a good one. Things could have been a lot worse when I broke down, but it made me see the light! I should ask Santa for one for Christmas so I can have an extra one on stand by. LOL

 

Umm my 93 is a stocker .......... now I'm getting the itch to change it too and it's
battery (wet) is borderline EOL too (fat plates in the pack).........might be time for
the winning combo that worked for me

E/UK RR23 & MotoBatt MBTX14AU

 

Ok, I managed some time to wire the new unit wired in this morning. I hit myself in the mouth with the wire strippers and scared the crap out of me that I may have broke a tooth, but I'm ok. Now I have to go find some 8mm bolts that are long enough to bolt it on. I'm eager to fire my bike back up and make sure everything is working ok!

 

Ok, Im back in business I believe. I'm getting 14.9 volts at 5k. Is that correct?
