Default RE: Regulator/Rectifier

I've now looked for information about the CBR 1000 F generator but not been able to find any relevant specific information .

This is how I would do in case of a faulty stock R/R to the Cane. Or even better before it fails to eliminate a longdowntime period [X(].

First get a used or new R/R to a Yamaha R1that are quite cheap and known to last.
Then I would connect is as usual but leave the two wires to the Cane field/magnetizing winding open. Next step would be to see if the alternator charges at all. I would also apply DC-voltage to the field winding and investigate how the voltage and current changes when the DC-current to the field winding is changed. That would give theknowledge to use a conventional R/R on the Cane and how the Cane'sfield winding should be connected and controlled.

Just tomake some speculations; the field winding may require just a verylittle amount current (if any when the engine runs) and could e.g. be connected in serial with a lamp that reduces the current and a diode that secure the circuit doesn’t drain the battery when the engine is off.

I would do above more as a challenge to learn and understand the circuitry and to be independent of the overpriced stock R/R’s for the Cane. Most humans would not want to waste their time though and will justbuy a stock R/R.
