I'm working on an install for some new, ballistic nylon saddlebags. They are pretty big, and attach to one another with two wide velcro straps. I am thinking about putting the straps under the pillion seat, but if I do, one of the straps runs right over the top of the rectifier. I tried it for size, and the seat will fasten down over it, but I want to make sure that I am not generating a problem. I see the fins on the top, which I would guess are there to help cool. If I put the strap over it, will it:
a) keep the rectifier from being properly cooled, and damage the rectifier
b) cause heat build-up that will ignite/melt the strap
c) both
d) neither, but something else unpleasant
3) nothing, it will be fine.
Any help appreciated
