If you're running a hi output stator, then check the reg Rec isn't getting too hot on a trip. You may have put a fooly soick Stator in!! ;)

reg/rec does get hot almost to a point where you cant touch, that just sitting still 5 min idle, i contacted the ppl i got stator from and there sending a replacement , again i should show according from the book 42.3 and 63.3 v av and i only gett 41.9, and the ohm's are off book calls for .03-.04 and im getting 1.5 max so when warranty get here ill test again to see what the readings are, i also got batt replaced under warranty but now i need to get another reg/rec dammm 190 from dealer, this sucks....

With the price of replacement parts being so high and the chances that you might have an unknown problem and burn up more expensive shit, I would take it to a GOOD dealer. That way if it burns up again it will be their problem. Electrical problems especially intermitent charging problems are a pain to find. Cheers.
