  11. Regulators and rectifiers are all pretty much made the same and all are prone to failure just like on a car. It's usually not so much the equipment being at fault unless it's a poor design or placement with not enough airflow for cooling or too small of heat sink etc. There are several causes for premature RR failure the most common ones are. Extended idling/warm up, starting/stopping often, low rpm operation/in town riding, auxiliary lighting or electrical equipment, electrical shorts or poor grounding in the electrical system, low battery level. The best way to eliminate RR failure it to keep the battery on charge when the bike is not being used for a week or two or if used often in town at low rpms. Most motorcycles generators/alternators don't put out enough power to CHARGE a system until over 2000rpm some are even higher. And it takeS a long time to charge up a battery back to 100%. Most charging systems are only designed to keep a fully charged battery fully charged, nothing more so if you battery is not at 100% its adding extra load to the charging system. I think ZZR600 Like some VFR's suffer with this and your job down the smoke may not help matters Extended warm up or slow operation and stop and go traffic can be constantly discharging the battery and running at less then optimum power (voltage and amps) and this causes an extra load on the electrical system as well. You miles away mate but I am sure some one will be able to suss it out.
  12. Darkember you would be better meeting Stu just out side the gates of this place I recon Wildmoor Spa & Health Club Alcester Road, Stratford Upon Avon, CV37 9RJ,
  13. Rose, I screwed up and did far to many miles mid week on the Bandit got back late last night from Mid Wales, The roads where far to busy and to be honest it felt like I was on a suicide mission more then a gentle ride home. I felt mentally drained this morning. Old age and a misspent youth creeping in I recon. May be I should start going down the gym with Stu and is mates I seem to spend more time that end of town lately. mind you I should leave the bomb bay mix aloan
