Title: Exposed rectifier Post by littlefights on 10/07/09 at 12:34:38 I'm putting on a solo-seat, but due to time and budget restraints, I won't be able to put on a chopped rear fender for a while. I know it doesn't look the best, but is there any trouble leaving the rectifier exposed where its presently located? Are there any other ways to easily cover it? Thanks. |

Title: Re: Exposed rectifier Post by srinath on 10/07/09 at 13:24:55 R/R makes a good bit of heat. leaving it open is better than what suzuki did. Do not put a tight cover on it, you want it to shed heat. On the chopper bobber after I hacked off the rear fender I put it inside my airbox. Its worked in 500 miles ... so I am leaving it there and calling it a permanent solution. Cool. Srinath. |

Title: Re: Exposed rectifier Post by dasch on 10/08/09 at 12:19:16 Coal canister bracket? Yeah, coal canister bracket. The funny otherwise unused bracket that looks like a weird exhaust bracket to an untrained eye. Look behind the exhaust muffler, a piece of bent metal between swingarm pivot points. On bikes sold in california and some other markets, there is a coal canister there. |
