Buckeye said send it back to them and they are going to have it factory tested to see if they can help pinpoint the cause also in 4 years of selling this model mine have been the only ones to fail.

I can't belive this thread went so long

Anything else go out or just the lights?

I will deffintly give buckeye a call and see what he has to say, I had mounted the new one to the same place as the OEM one and considering the temps i was riding in I do not belive overheating should have been an issue when it failed. I found this on e-bay for the SHINDENGEN R/R and may give that a try. http://www.ebay.com/itm/SHINDENGEN-MOSFET-FH020AA-REGULATOR-RECTIFIER-KIT-REPLACES-FH012AA-/380704480069 The stator measures good and puts out good voltage but I will not discount it just yet.

Well go get his picture

Here are a couple pics of the R/R, I put an ammeter on my bike and another RSV and the current draw was almost identical on both bikes.

Saw this yesterday and got a kick out of it. http://beantownbaggers.net/2014/03/31/harley-davidson-acquired-by-japanese-owned-kawasaki-motor-company-ltd/

I am not sure the brand I ordered it from Buckeye under the claims that it was matched to the HO stator.

I ride so I don't go any crazier than I already am.

Morning, I replaced the stator two years ago with the high output one from Buckeye Performance and I bought the HO regulator to go along with it, I replaced the battery at the same time and it holds charge very well so I had really not considered the battery as the culprit. The only accersiory I am running right now is my GPS so I would not think I should be overloading the system. I will I have checked the connections and the wires numerous times but that does not mean I did not miss something. I will check the current draw tonight and see what it is.

Sounds like a good idea to me.

We were getting ready to head out Friday to go to GA and my 99 RSV started overgharging again. I have went through 3 R/Rs and I can not find any thing grounded, connectivitiy to the plug is good, the stator is putting out well, I went through the T/S for the stator several times and it shows good each time. No burnt or damaged pins on the plug. The R/R seems to last a couple hundred miles doing just fine then all of the sudden starts overcharging. My ignition switch went bad right before Vogel, I have it by passed and I have an aftermarket fuel pump but other than those two things everything else is in the original configuration. I am going to order a new switch today and put it in but if anyone has anything else for me to check or any ideas at all I would much appricate it.

I might have to break out my telescope and get some pics. That one looks fairly similar to mine and here are a couple pics I took a few years back. The telescope itself runs around 300 but he does have a few extras that he bought separately.

I use it to stick my MP3 player in, works real well.

Received another one of these today and even after I told the guy I knew it was a scam he was still insistent.

Bought mine from the auto parts store also real cheap.

Bad ignition switch.

Wish you the best!!

I first saw this headline and had to do a double take. Owner of Bushy Park industrial park near Goose Creek sold to Pacolet Milliken http://www.postandcourier.com/article/20140318/PC05/140319379/1010/owner-of-bushy-park-industrial-park-near-goose-creek-sold-to-pacolet-milliken

Congrats, now we know who is buying on the 29th

Well that stinks.

I made my own, but if I had know I could have got one for 12 bucks I would have jumped on it.

Outside the Iron Horse Saloon.

Glad you are recovering and getting to ride and wish you the best.
