      Sadly I feel even the "new" parts are just getting worse and worse. The regulators should still be reasonable though for replacement. I roll the dice on em, some last forever, some last 50 miles. Wish I had a better response for ya. Thanks for watching!

    Where did you get the one you should have gotten from? The one I need is out of production..so it's either flea bay from China/az. or rewire a ricks vr

      I ended up having generator problems. I think the brushes need a deep cleaning. I put the old custom chrome one back in. V Twin carries a repop plug and play one though (for '81). Not sure if it's any good though. If it's a keeper bike, I've had good luck with Cycle Electrics in the past, but they're a bit pricey. Thanks for watching!

      @Wrenching Wrecked that's where I'm at. Already paid for a new battery then a tow. Got home, and said it's either the vr or the stator. If I keep.the bike, I'd repair it/switch/convert it back to a three phase. Been on the fence about keeping it(buell) or selling it(I have 6)
