What he said,
But, I wouldn't pay more than £15 inc postage cos you can get R1 or R6 R/R from autojumbles ie Rufforth / Newark for £10-£15 and it's a simple mod to change.
Regulator/Rectifier Mod
IMO don't put another Honda one on - unreliable, although one with heatsink is going to fair better cos of cooling effect.
Alternatively if your stock one is OK, got to Maplins or RS components or similar, buy:

Alternatively if your stock one is OK, got to Maplins or RS components or similar, buy:
- Small piece of heatsink (or take one off an old PC processor).
Tube or sachet of heatsink compound (white paste).
Cut the heatsink to fit around the shape of the R/R (metal surround).
Drill two holes through to match the R/R ones.
Blather the base of the heatsink in compound so it fills the void.
Screw assembly back in place.
(PC heatsinks are VERY efficient)

Will look into PC heatsink mod, got a few lying around.....looks like once you piont out a good item on this site the price on ebay rockets (funnily enough
)
