Author Message   Coastrambler Posted on Tuesday, August 19, 2014 - 04:49 pm:        I put a Compu-Fire VR out back, just in front of the license plate. It was a fairly easy install. I used 1/4" (6mm) thick aluminum. I cut the connectors from the old VR and spliced them in. Had to add wire for AC side, new ones were way too short.   Coastrambler Posted on Sunday, August 24, 2014 - 09:15 pm:        OK, the bike is up and running with new stator. OEM, made in Croatia. Rectifier/regulator runs barely arm to the touch. Output is 14.8V at 4,000RPM. Attaching a photo of the failed stator. Looks like it shorted across 2 phases.   Coastrambler Posted on Sunday, August 24, 2014 - 09:19 pm:        That's warm to the touch. Sticky w. Remember children. On a blind right sacrifice speed to hug the inside.   Coastrambler Posted on Tuesday, October 21, 2014 - 01:11 am:        Update. Have about 2,00 miles on Compufire rectifier/regulator. All's well. I don't use battery tender at all anymore. My instrument panel used to go dark at times. Hasn't done that at all. Sure hope I'm not jinxing it.
