There are a couple of very cheap and easy mods you can do to the charging system that will give you another .3v or .5v charging power. What electrics are you using, that you feel it's worthwhile to spend hundreds of dollars to replace properly functioning stock equipment? Devon A15 jlabateklr wrote:

Devon, I am using heated grips and an electric vest and am installing running lights next.

I purchased a RR26 regulator rectifier from Electrex about a little over a month ago for an application on a Kawasaki Vulcan. The RR26 is the same "replacement" unit sold for the KLR. After receipt of the unit, I found out that it was thicker than the original unit and the original bolts did not fit in the new unit. Secondly, the wires of the unit were not as long as the original...in fact, they were three inches too short and the unit would not fit in the original mounting position due to the short wires. I sent Electrex an email however I never received a reply. I finally called, and Dave acknowledged that he received the email but did not bother to reply. Dave told me to send the unit back and he would turn it around in 5 days. That was three weeks ago. I called yesterday and Dave promised to get the wires extended and returned. I am less than pleased with the service. I can't tell you if the unit works or not and hopefully it will be wonderful but Electrex customer service stinks!
