It will be even better if the above mentioned FH012AA units will do the job at £27 a pop.
I await the advice of those more electrically skilled than myself (which isn't hard) with great anticipation.

Amended to remove my typo, it should indeed have said FH012AA, nice find Jeff

FH020AA is the latest version of the above

F..king far out !
I do love a bargain mod.
At that price, its far cheaper to upgrade than to fit a std Ducati unit or an Electrex replacement.
That's on my winter list now.

And...the same company advertise some very cheap, Superseal type connectors, and other odds and sods.
Dunno whether they're genuine, but that's probably no big deal anyway.
They even stock an 8-way waterproof multiconnector......which is how I came to spot the mosfets.
An order will be placed shortly and I will report back on its arrival.

Yes, I saw that one.
Its actually the same company that I got my billet levers from.
But there's no specific part number on their advert, so no absolute guarantee that its the correct one.
It probably is the same, but not worth the risk for a couple of quid, I thought.

Well they are both for R1s within the same date rage so I'd be very confident they are identical. A quick message to the seller may confirm.

A word of warning though.....I have been told that the Shindengen website warns of counterfeit units built with inferior internal components.
Of course they probably would say that anyway to preserve their trade, but still worth being cautious with cheaper alternatives of any kind.
You pays yer money........

Mate locally has had problems with "new" Shindengen on his 888

Q: Not all these regulators support the charge light on the console - does this one you are using?

I so nearly went for this conversion when Kato first posted it last year, but I was put off by the price of the Yamaha units. So I stuck with the working rectifier that I have with good connections.

Utopia's find has got me on the boil again but I am a little concerned about the counterfeit story...Can we tell which ones are likely to be counterfeit?
I must admit that The link Dirty posted does not send the right signals, and Utopia's does show the part number on the item.
Who is Shindengen? I am assuming they are the makers of the genuine items?

The phrase " If it looks too good to be true, it probably is" ...Springs to mind..

OK I can guarantee if you are using a genuine Shindengen FH012AA or FH020AA they work on all three phase Ducati, I have not personally tried one with the early single phase generators, you are right to be cautious though as there are a lot of Chinese copy units floating about.

http://www.shindengen.co.uk/index.asp?page=aboutus

Shindengen - World leading manufacturer of energy conversion products such as rectifier diodes, schottky diodes, power MOSFETs, bridge diodes etc. they are Japanese with a European HQ in the UK beware of anything coming out of China

the weakest point in all ducati electrials systems is the crap standard connectors , superseal or similar or solder and heatshrink is a good start .

Damn the S4 has some weird problems ,, its not charging properly Stator is good giving from 19v output up to 58+ AC volts on all 3 phases as engine revs on my fluke multimeter

new RR measures fine on impedance ,using my fluke meter and battery is brand new Morobatt but charging out put from RR is only 12..3 volts at tick over and as revs rise volts from RR go down to 7.8 v ?????? and its really HOT connectors are Big yellow 6mm bullets all new .

im totally perplexed and of course this being Thailand the Ducati dealers have zero stock and are quoting £250 for REG RECTIFIER 4 weeks delivery ,,

Im not sure what the issue is is it RR ?? would explain the problems ?

maybe some other bike dealer can supply me with a RR Honda or kawasaki have parts in stock


could the yellow phase wires s be out of phase cause new RR to malfunction ???? i marked them before connecting 1 ,2, 3 but might have mixed accidentally ????
