    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

This is the best picture I have of how I have my R/R setup.

Though I'm honestly reconsidering moving it behind the airbox. I'm just not 100% sure about the room. It'd be a pretty tight fit and I'd have to drill holes into the airbox or use an adhesive. Neither of those ideas thrill me.

I have used a product from Radio Shack with excellent results. It is called Superlock Fasteners. It is basically extremely strong, hi-temp hi-Strength velcro. I could not find it on their web site, but they have it in the store. Think of it as maxi-velcro. You could then pull the R/R off if you wanted, although it is very difficult. Just a thought.
 
Yea I'll play around with it. I'll be doing my carbs soon so I'll probably take the airbox out and get it all cleaned up. Perhaps that'll give me the opportunity to move the R/R. We'll see.

Sorry to thread-jack, btw.
 
Thanks for the information and the photos. The RR I have won't fit in the stock location but I think I can attach it to the battery carrier and the air box and get it mounted solidly and with some airflow to keep it cool.

The RR I have is marked Tympanium Corporation and inside the epoxy the board is marked T-1133-2. Anyone have any idea what machine this is from?

Has 3 yellow wires with male bullet type connectors and one black wire with female bullet connector. I assume the black lead goes through a fuse to the battery + and the RR case is the ground.
 
Never heard of the brand, but that is the only logical assumption. Bolt the R/R down and run a ground wire from that bolt to the negative post on the battery.

Don't waste your time with an oddball R/R- you put your stator at risk. Shindengens can be had for less than $20 and have proven reliable. If space is a problem, look for a SH-530, used on ninjas since the last ice age, so there are lots on ebay- would be more than adequate at about 2/3 the size of normal Shindengen.

I won't recommend a model, but I will say a used, good quality, known R/R is about 1/10 the price of a new stator.
