Yes you can reuse a solid copper gasket, heat to cherry red and quench in water

two wire, think this is it. I would have liked a replacement zener diode they look good under the headlamp, but the combined reg/rectifiers are reasonably priced, think it’s a straight forward upgrade.

You may find that a modern combined reg/rectifier has to be neg earth.


Al Osborn the electrical guru over on the NOC site sells stuff and offers advice on Brit Bike electrics.

He also does regulators for neg or positive earth systems.
