Hi, first, please no wise cracks, my name sticks, and all my real problems with this bike all revolve around the f@#king charging system!!
I have just replaced the regulator/rectifier (yes, again) as I got a flat battery at the bike shop while getrting a new tyre fitted and they checked it and said that the rectifier was buggered (didn't offer to sell me one though so they werent trying to improve their bottom line). So i ordered and installed a new rectifier andit is still not charging. When I installed the new rectifier I noticed one of the wired close to the rectifier but going to/coming from the stator was cooked (near the rectifier only), so I replaced the wire (all soldered and insulated connections.
Anyway, like I said, still no joy (on the plus side I think I have a spare rectifier!!). I am 99% sure it is the stator so I am going to check this and have been told that the method is to cut all wires to the stator, leave the ignition off, then check using ohms on the multimetre for continuity and apparently should read around 10 for each test. Is this correct or is there a better method?
Thanks in advance
Also does anyone have one for sale - I can get a new one ex USA for about $130

Them's fighting words, the track's the only place to fix this, what's your lap time around EC? (counted in your head of course)

I'd be keen on the Gingers Creek run - will see how the $$ are going but def wouldn't get the Friday off (way to much annual leave taken this year chasing my girlfriend).
EC - never been to the track yet, again $$ related, one day!
ZZR250 taken off profile - sold that over a year ago!
