Spanner1972:
Is there a modern day alternative to the big and bulky system for the CB 550 four? You'll have to excuse my novice question this is all new to me. Thanks.

Bryanj:
There are one piece electronic reg/rec units available but the slightest hint of wrong wiring and they are, as my uncle would have said, crodged (or knackered as they say now)

Spanner1972:
Is it best to try and get an old/new/used one or get the newer type and get it professionally wired up? Thanks for the info.

Lobo:
Hi Spanner,

DSS (David Silver Spares) sell an all-in-one Regulator/Rectifier unit, which should just bolt on directly to you bike... via one loom plug. I had one on my CB750K2 & it worked a treat. You will be able to remove the regulator unit... just tape up the 3 wires (black, white, green)  & stow them safely out of harms way.

Job done.

Simon

Bryanj:
Lobo, did you find the acid leaked out of that battery?
