I told him to start a new thread. He's got a billion more responses here, so obviously it worked

This is definitely what you'll want to do with the connectors, although you could always just solder them in place and seal them up properly. No weak connection points to concern yourself over... although removing the R/R requires UNSOLDERING the previous job, heh.


I went with a GSXR R/R. They're FAR beefier and have vastly incrseased surface area on their cooling fins. Here's a picture:




OEM is above the GSXR one to the top left. The difference is painfully obvious. The GSXR unit is superior.



EDIT: The connectors there are most definitely not the best example of my work, nor even an advised method. It worked in a pinch though

 

So unplug the R/R then try to ground it? Or am I missing something? That doesn't seem like it would do anything, there would be no power going to it if it is only grounded

Also, I just bought this one on ebay:



Out of a 04 GSXR600.

 

lol okay, nuff questions, plug it in an see what happens

 

Don't listen to that ****.

Go read the sticky on electrical troubleshooting. it tells oyu EXACTLY how to troubleshoot an R/R. A short will be painfully obvious, and a bad part of the R/R will also be painfully obvious.

Don't forget to check your stator connections for short to ground.

 

Gotta wait for the post man, hopefully the USPS doesn't go under before I get it

I have no idea who anyone on here is. You're all terrorists to me.
