WOw, bike seems to start up a LOT easier and idles better. Is this normal? I picked up an 05 gsxr rr plug and threw it on a 96 F3. I haven''t had the chance to just let it sit and idle...but the old RR would make the bike die after idling for 10/15 minutes

You can use a Suzuki GSX-R regulator rectifier on our bikes, with a little modification to the wiring and mounting. Our R/R has a tendacy to burn out pretty quick. The GSX-R''s are larger and handles heat a whole lot better. And for you GSX-R riders who are probably reading this, THAT WILL BE THE LAST COMPLEMENT YOU WILL EVER HEAR FROM ME! HONDA 4-LIFE!!!

On the right side of your bike (when your sitting on it) if you remove the right tail piece you will see two black square shaped things bolted onto your frame. The largest one is CDI (computer brain) the other one is your R/R. Don''t touch it after you''ve been riding for awhile because it gets red hot! It controls the amount of voltage your bike generates when your riding it. When that thing goes out, your bike will act like it''s on some serious drugs! Your battery will go dead, your gauges will start doing some funny things, the bike will act like it''s running out of gas! They sell a heavy duty one that a whole lot better than the stock. I have one on my bike. But even the heavy duty ones can go bad. If you search this forum you will find that alot of folks has switched over to the GSX-R one just for that reason. Just pray that your not on a long ride when that thing goes out. I was about 30 min from home when mine went out, but I made it home. It wasn''t pretty though, sweating bullets all the way!

NVM it''s still running like shit and dying. I''m guessing because I put too much seafoam and not enough gas in the tank and killed it trying to crank it over and over again? Either way I filled it up with 93 so we''ll see what happens. I think my spark plug wires are shot. Anywhere to pick up a set cheap? Prefferably new. I wouldnt'' care if they''re aftermarket.

kid you not my voltage regulator went out right before my cycle endorsement test so when i was on the starting line my battery killed on me. Didn''t realize it was my regulator until after throwing in a new battery and having that die on me too lol. Ended up taking out just about all my fuses (lights,signal,horn ect) then jumping her just to get home. the dealer wanted $195.00 for a new regulator so i just took the one i have on my ''94 cbr off and have been running like that since.
