for some stupid reason, my 95 900rr has a charging problem and ive been through three batteries and the shop here in athens keeps telling me the charging system is fine but when i rode for about a half hour at night with my high beams on the bike wouldnt start after i shut it off. wtf man. any ideas anyone???

 

yeah get a new regulator the charging system is fine but if you cant convert ac to dc you have a regulator rectifier problem

 

Get the GSXR regulator. I changed mine and the charging starts in the 2500 RPM range. Wiring was simple. Mounted the unit in the tool box.

 

umm, get an aftermarket R/R for your bike, all that other stuff is silly, the one ment for your bike is ment for it for a reason and ya sounds like the R/R

 

Deadspot the gixxer regulator is actually a good upgrade to the factory one on the 900rr...the cooling fins on it are bigger and runs alot cooler. Heat is what kills the voltage regulator...it runs way too hot. I went through the same crap with my 99...first the regulator took a dump, then tha stator did, but when the stator crapped it took out my wiring harness....double whammy....ive replaced everything now she runs sweet as hell.

 

Good if ya got one... just thought yall should know, the new replacement from HONDA has deep cooling fins as well (still cant get a pic to load). peace

 

the replacement one for my F2 also had a heat sink.

 

Where can I find this stuff

 

I buy from beaverdam honda, look it up on the web, use the partsfinder fish system. good prices and ships pretty quick.

 

Try Electrex
they specialise in R/R's and they give a years guarantee (Honda give you nothing)
and have big cooling fins, and start charging lower down the rev range. I have one on my 1000F and have been very happy with it.
