The reg/recs aren't in the best place... they get heat from the engine. A lot of people had problems with them early on, prior to them having a heat sheild. I replaced mine before it went, with a FH008 reg. Way better model.

I think I had told you that I had my stator replaced under warranty......two or three months after the warranty expired.

Good that you were prepared.
You didn't replace it with the same reg rec I hope.

Nearly everyone I know has had either the R/R or stator go so that's why I bought a spare R/R, which is the MOSFET one. More heavy duty and after I tested everything was showing a very healthy figure on my meter.

Yes, the R/R is in a retarded place and a fucker to get to also.
I have put it back in the same spot for the interim and will move it in the very near future to a more breezy location on the bike.

See I like the look of the Triumph Explorer that's coming out but it has more electronics than a jaycar store, so I wonder how it will go reliability wise considering it's an adventure tourer? (on the topic of trumpy electrics that is)

QV are you selling this already??? Say it ain't so!

So who is she??? The new bike you've got your eye on? Or what have you ordered/bought?
MV Augusta perhaps?

Mr vadas bought a rsv4

My mental image of QV has changed to that of a ninja with a table full of Australian currency.
