Exposed rectifier (Read 216 times)

littlefights Junior Member Offline SuzukiSavage.com Rocks! Posts: 54 Gender:	Exposed rectifier 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.

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.

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.
