I sold my vtr in 2014, so I have little links now to this site. Sorry if someone else has pointed this out, but BMCRC (Bemsee) have a power to weight race class for older bikes, thunderbikes. Basically people put modern suspension on older bikes. There's two classes, one sub 105hp, one sub 135hp. At...

They should be slowly killed, with the kind of slicer they use to cut up Parma Hams. If they were to be electrocuted I would not recommend the rectifier converting the AC mains to DC for the electrocution be made in China. I have had one burn out just recently on my bike. Best go for a German electr...

Jamie, I doubt if they bottomed out.i think I sent you the info about air gap etc. they are supposed to be somewhat stiff. I still have a belly pan, plus mounts, and a race fairing. 15 quid for the belly pan and mounts, swap with your belly pan. If you ride around it gives me a chance to check how t...

Thanks Jamie. I am now riding about with your shock and forks on the bike, plus your exhausts. The bike feels a lot heavier! Hope you noticed some improvement in the handling with the forks, brace and shock. I noticed a change without them. The standard VTR gearing is way too high. I have got used t...

Thanks I shall try all that !

Only 12.5 v now, it was 13.5v when I first fitted the rectifier. It gets so hot you cannot hold it eventually!

By the way I crimped the connectors on nicely to connect them onto the rectifier.
Are the two links to r/r's that will work?

Battery is virtually new and accepts a charge normally. I cannot believe it is the battery. I shall see there is a current leak somewhere, although I cannot see how that would make the r/r get hot.
Are chinese r/r's really that bad?

My vtr's battery went flat. The rectifier's connector block was corroded - so bad I had to cut each wire and connect them to the new rectifier individually. New rectifier bought off ebay. Chinese. There are three yellow wires (from alternator) and the red/white (positive) and green (negative) dc out...
