RE: Stator and reg/rec problems
i cut the red output wire from the rr and ran it straight to the battery positive, because you get a lot of voltage drop in the orginal loom, also if yr reg is putting in to much voltage i would question the remake rr unit, you shouldnt be going through 6 regs something else is wrong, a bad stator can blow a rr unit, but u have replaced both so seems strange, i would get another rr unit form a differnt manufactorer and try that 90% of the time the rr unit is the fault my 2c

RE: Stator and reg/rec problems
I just purchased 2 used original reg/recs (part no SH261-12) on e-Bay UK, for a total of $50 INCLUDING POSTAGE. Parts cost $2 and $10 respectively. I'll just wire them to fit my Electrex modified plug, and keep one under my seat.......
The same part no also fits the CB750F2, and the ST1100 Pan- Euro by the way.Others too, methinks..
e-Bay UK is always a good source of spares..for all you new members out there....Hi Diddly and co !
ALSO HAVE A LOOK AT www.mrcycle.com, bigape.
Sorry Moderators, but it's his chosen name......he he

RE: Stator and reg/rec problems
ORIGINAL: Shadow1
As many of you know, I've been having problems for ages with stator and reg/recs. I've had I think 6 reg recs - they seem to blow up after about 6 months. I replaced the stator in December plus a new reg/rec....lasted 3 months. I found the resistance on the coils is 3.5 ohms instead of the 2.0 to 2.6 ohms as per the manual, in the stator. What would this cause, and how can I fix the problem ?
Any advice would be welcome......

Above you refer to "the manual". Is this your Honda Workshop manual or the Electro sport Fault find sheet?
My Honda w/shop manual states 0 to 0.1ohm between each and all yellow wires - where are we different?

RE: Stator and reg/rec problems
I'm measuring the field coil resistances in the stator, and I think you're measuring the resistance from one end of the three stator yellow wires to the other.....? Resistance in the field coils should be 2.0 - 2.6 ohms, but there should be very little resistance in the wiring itself.[:-]
I'm using the Haynes manual to give me resistance values, but a copy of your Electro Sport electronic fault finding data sheet would be most welcome !
