The one off the 900 has only 2 wires, whilst the S4R has a three wire alternator. My question is will I be doing any damage running the bike using this set up, I am seeing 14.3V at the battery with the engine running

Many of the MOSFET ones on EBAY from china that are cheap are fakes and a shunt types and burn easily ,, beware genuine ones for Ducati, triumphs or yamaha R1 R6 are always about £100 shindengren is the make
