Gents, has anyone recently replaced their voltage regulator on their classic and if so which one did you use?
Need to change the one on my classic and need some direction.
Thanks as always

Re: Voltage regulator
Roy,
My Commander, may be different from a Classic. I use an Electrex World RR10 (it is marked as suitable for a Norton?) in last 13 years I have averaged 45k miles and had to replace one regulator rectifier.
As you will no doubt be aware it is important that the RR is not located in an area where it may get too hot.
Good luck
Tony

Re: Voltage regulator
Thanks for that Tony, I will try and track one down and get it fitted. Do you use a particular supplier or just go with whoever is cheapest?
All the best

Re: Voltage regulator
Roy,
I go direct to Electrex World https://www.electrexworld.co.uk/cgi-bin ... ml#SID=439
Checking their website just now it seems the RR10 is out of stock, as they make them in house I would call them and ask when they will be in stock and if they had an equivalent available.
They may want to know what alternator you have, my Commander is 370w 3 phase, I would guess your Classic is the same but worth checking just to be sure.
Good luck
Tony
