Rescuing a '92 VFR750F


Recommended Posts

I did a running voltage check on the stator. All the phases appear to be putting out the right voltage. No continuity between phases and ground when cold or warm. I don’t have a meter sensitive enough to measure the resistance between phases. 
 

At idle, everything is fine. At a sustained 4k rpm for about 90 seconds, the regulator/rectifier stars smoking. 
 

is it worth trying a $20 rectifier off Amazon to see if it smokes or just bite the bullet and get the $160 heavy duty one?

Well, you can spend $20 for a confirmation that existing RR is bad.

But at some point, you're gonna want to upgrade to SH847 anyway.

Got my registration and tag today. Almost road legal. Just needs to pass inspection. Needs new tires to pass. 
 

I got all the front plastics on. Of course I forgot the stupid scoop thing so I have to take it all off again, but such is life. 
 

I decided to roll with the crappy condition plastics for now. Getting them reconditioned is… costly. So I’ll save up for that. 

 

Either way, photos!
