Voltage Regulator

[vincep99]

I need a voltage regulator for my 2007 S4RS. I searched the threads here and there were some ideas but mostly they are 5 years old. Any new sources?

Check with them by phone before ordering, or just check the length of the leads on the regulator that is on your bike.

What Howie said. ^

Thanks for the quick responses!

That looks like a good choice.

I will order from Rick's.

as a fellow 2007 S4RS owner, could you take a few pictures of the replacement process. I'm thinking i should replace mine before the thing fails when i'm out on highway 94

Sure!
Unfortunately I already replaced it, but I did write a procedure.

1. Remove seat
2. Remove left-hand side cover
3. Unstrap 2 rubber wire ties
4. Unplug both connectors going to the regulator:
3-pin yellow wire coming from stator
4-pin power output
Do this by depressing the tab lock on each connector
5. Unscrew regulator
   The right-hand side has a 10-mm nut underneath! Hold this with a wrench and don’t drop the nut

Assembly is the reverse of above

I took a couple of pictures, but I have to admit I do not know how to insert them. If you tell me, I will post them. When I hit "insert image", it inserts [img]

thanks, were you able to use the same mounting hardware? Was there any change in the physical size of the new VR compared to the old?

[vincep99]

I used the same mounting hardware and the new VR was the same size as the old one.
