    What irks me is $500 for a $50 part for a bad design in the first place.

    Hi Jon T. 

    I'm glad you found the discussion helpful, and the "thank you" is appreciated. Arguments about the functionality and reliability of a shunt regulator with a permanent magnet alternator (PMA) have been going on a long time in the motorcycle world... and yet they are still using it.

    Hi all

    I just started a thread on a new regulator from RS Flight Systems.  It is late but they got it into production finally.  It is not cheap, but it is better and that is the main thing.  

    I have had regulator failure in my own motorcycle (a BMW F 800 GS)  that failed one.  If you check on most of the threads for most of the bigger bikes you will find a lot of them have switched to the better Mosfet regulators as aftermarket parts.  

    Cheers

    Just want to clarify something for some comments made on this thread. Regulator A (and also Stator A) in normal conditions power both ECU A and ECU B and all the components fed by them, that is Injectors (all ), iginition coils (all), and both fuel pumps. Regulator B (and stator B) in normal conditions feed the aircraft loads (charges the battery, feed lights, avionics, etc.). This is stated on the user manual, and installation manual.

    For better understanding, I think that Regulators A and B should be named for example X and Y, so nobody confuses the letters of the regulators with the letters of both ECUs.

    regards,
