This is my Rectifier...
As I'm looking to change it, (if need be), am I looking at the OEM one, or an aftermarket one?
I see them on Ebay for $18-. What is the difference between those ebay ones, and the MosFet ones for around $100-? I'm sure most of you replaced yours years ago, but this would really help, Thanks! JD https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.sup...3050fb29ae.jpg |
Now is the time to do the MOSFET swap.
Just fyi, compare this to what you have already found. https://www.ebay.com/itm/2003-Yamaha...lVgx09&vxp=mtr |

Thank you. I've seen that thread, but my ADD kicks in and I get bored. Is there a Cliff's notes version? hahaha
So would you say mine in the foto is the original one? |
IIRC that is a stock R/R that was used on late model SH. It will also let you down, maybe not as soon. The R/R is one of couple of important up-grades/fixes that are imperative that they be dealt with. Not worth cheeping out on.

Thanks much. Not one to cheap out in general. Is there a simple plug n play unit that many are using? I really don't want to have to spice wires and get all crazy with it, haha. |
Not sure, maybe someone else www chime in, but I don't think that there is what would be a real upgrade to to stock that uses the stock connector. Eastern Beaver, Cycle Terminal are two online retailers that have all the wires needed to swap in the common mosfet R/R. All plug and play.
Check out the sticky about R/Rs |

You're the man, Wicky. Thanks a ton. Just soldered n wrapped a handful of wires for my new integrated tail light, so this looks no biggie. Which one did you go with?

You're either going to stay w/ the unreliable crap or you're going to get all crazy (no splicing, just cutting off old plug and adding new terminals). Your decision.

Click the link above the piccie - I crimped it to the connectors.

The better solution is to use the correct connector, with a MOSFET RR.
Furukawa 250 QLW Series R&R Connectors are the correct ones and can be had from many sources. I get them from a place called Cycle Terminal Furukawa QLW 250 most times unless im already ordering from Corsa Technic, LLC and then I order there https://www.corsa-technic.com/catego...ategory_id=101 Use the proper crimping tool and you have a life long job done using a modern sealed connector |
Awesome. I'll check it out.

The 1st MOSFET I installed on my SH https://www.superhawkforum.com/forum...ing-r-r-24798/ and then later upgraded to the new SH version https://www.superhawkforum.com/forum...ies-r-r-34077/ |
