A rectal what??!!???

[vifferman]

You can buy a new wReck-you-later/Rectumfrier from Mt Eden Motorcycles.

Like I told you.

Or you can go somewhere else, and they can get you one from Eurobike.
Or you can go to AMPS or ThatOtherShopINeverMention, and get a genuine Honda one, actually made by Shindengen, for more than the Shindengen one Mt Eden M/C will sell you.

OR you can go to a wrecker, and buy a Kawasaki/Suzuki/Yamaha/Honda one.

Oh, you want a rectum fryer? just ask The Dover:lol:

True.
They're just BlackVoodooMagic; it's not like they're RocketScience or anything.
All they do is convert AlternativeCuntiness into DomesticComfort and heat. And Positive Mojo.

You can laugh.

VTRs are worse for eating those Wreck-u-laterer/Rectumfriers than VFRs are. :nya:

A few years ago I had a Ducati Paso [remember them, the ones with the Dellorto downdraught car carb] parked in the garage being stored for a mate.
Anyway he finally came over to pick it up, it wouldnt start ,so we whipped the seat off & there was the reg/rect smoking it up before our very eyes!!! BLOODY ITALIAN ELECTRICS!!!

The Shindengen R/R/R/R I fitted to my VFR750, and the R/R/R/R/r/r/r/b I fitted to the VTR1000 are apparently (so they say, but they could be lying) the same ones for sticking in Ducatis.
I suspect that nearly all bikes have dodgy R/Rs, apart from later model Hondas, and those Yamahas with proper alternators.

You could try Henry at Takanini Wreckers,he has a couple of NC30/35's..so there may be the option of new or used. (fwiw)

[FROSTY]

AHA--finally--vifferman says summat good about the mighty yamahaha

I just wanted one which will do the job better than the Honda one on there atm.

I replaced the RR in my VTR with the jobby from an '02 GSXR600/750. Big munty heat sink fins.

If you have no luck with the wreckers try Malcolm Kirkby at Econohonda http://www.econohonda.co.nz/

[skidMark]

whats wrong with your standard honda one :S they either go or they don't they can't go crap...(unless they are rubbish stock ones) maybe something wrong with your charging...care to explain a little more?

if you have a volt meter check how many volts maximum are coming out when you are revving it it shouldnt go over 14.8 but should be at 14.8 at reasonably low revs you shouldnt need to rev the crap out of it lol

tell us how that goes

Got a new battery today. I plug it in and press start - it goes click. Not click click click your battery's flat...just click and then i have to disconnect the battery and reconnect before it goes again....so at the moment it is not starting - so fuck it I'm going to get a shop to take a look at it.

[skidMark]

hang onnnn.....

your rectifier is fuc**d

where in auckland are you i may be able to bring one of my spare ones over for you is it one of the four pin square block connectors???
..;;

like that ^^^ ;;= where the clip thingy is ..... - = a pin ...... | sides of plug ...(meant to be one long side)

[skidMark]

just outta interest check your fuse isnt only just clippid in or has come lose and isnt sitting properly or worse blown mind you that wouldnt explain why you still get a click i mean it's a brand new battery try your fuse...but does horn and all that work ...or is it just when u try and start it that it goes funny?

[skidMark]

tick tock aint got all night my tail light bulb won't go atm for some reason it's a race against the earths rotation lol

[Vegan]

lol.....ok well basically the rectifier is in there and I cant pull it out - should it detach fairly easily?
hmmm - yeah all the electrics work when i plug it in etc - it's just when i press start that the click goes and all shuts down....

[Vegan]

Mark seems to be a legend - he came over and helped isolate (and by help I mean HE did it) the problem - which hopefully was just a loose connection!. So tmorrow I should know if i just had a loose connection or if something more sinister is is the cause.
CHEERS MARK:2thumbsup

[skidMark]

no worries tell me how it goes it should be fine now though the only problem was that plug shouldnt have stuffed the regulator looking at the wiring the plug was the cause

(plug that joined the handlebar switch with kill switch and start button was almost unplugged)

tricky one but hope all goes well mate :2thumbsup
