what have you done to your "bike" today
Re: what have you done to your "bike" today
Just been out and taken my generator cover off. It was not tight tight and came off with no bother. Hoping to do CCT's this weekend, weather permitting.

Re: what have you done to your "bike" today
I reckon that should be the first point on the CCT install guide lol
1) 3 days before attempting to do the mod, make sure that the cover caps come off the genny cover - if they don't, this should give you sufficient time to order and receive new from DS (Unless you are one of the lucky ones - Snoogle/cybercarl - and they came off with no bother)

Hit them with a hammer and ground to a wedge centrepunch- no bother at all.
Bit of damage, to be fair, but they do come off ok.....
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

Well my £3.50 fleabay Yamaha R/R arrived in the post... It's got 6 pins... D'oh.
The multimeter seems to show the three phases along the bottom, and the +ve and ground on each end of the top row... Which just leave the mysterious 6th pin in the middle of the top row...
The regulator is labelled SH678-11, and looks just like the one in this thread on the CBR forum. http://cbrforum.com/forum/cbr-900rr-19/ ... ing-98523/
His wiring matches what my multimeter indicates too... Even then '06 R6 wiring diagram I found (the fleabay listing said 06-07 R6) matches up with my meter and that photo... Nothing seems to use the mystery pin.
Guess I could always try it with some thin-ish wires so if anything is wrong they'll act as fuses.
Re: what have you done to your "bike" today
I might be wrong, but I think with the 6pinn RR you just ignore the extra pin and wire as a 5 pin. Like I said I might be wrong (not 100% sure) but I seem to re call someone telling me that.
Don't forget you will need a longer bolt to attach the Earth as the Yami RR's are deeper. I ended up borrowing one of my front tank bolts as I did not have one at the time.

HEY YOU GUYS!!!!!!
Re: what have you done to your "bike" today
Ideally you want a R/R marked as FH (MOSSFET) rather than SHThe regulator is labelled SH678-11,

Re: what have you done to your "bike" today
Cheers peeps. It's good to hear a few more saying the same thing.
Gives me more people to blame when something melts!
Plenty of nuts and bolts in the garage - I've taken many things apart over the years, so have "acquired" many many spares
If it gets half as warm as the original unit I'm tempted to mount it under the seat... Heated grips? Pah! I'll have a elbow warmer!
Unfortunately I don't think a MOSFET regulator is going to turn up like that, so it's back to the old fashioned subframe warmer version... Unless I fancy building a MOSFET regulator... Hmmm...
Ohh FFS! No! Not going there! I'm trying to get this bike back on the road! At the moment, the longer it rains the bigger pile of parts and the less bike I have in the garage!

If one of those turns up on Fleabay for £3.50, I'll be all over it like a cheap suit!Wicky wrote:Ideally you want a R/R marked as FH (MOSSFET) rather than SH
