Bogging down gsx250e after a mile always and stops

[ukjules]

But would being from such a reputable company be OK? If I can get connectors I can put bullet connectors on I would take a chance. They are series .
I can't find a sh775 and hell we need a reliable source .

shall I be the tester ?

I'd do as cipher says have 2 bikes prepped for the new RR.

Only you can decide.

Ok, I seriously doubt RM would deliberately lie about them being series devices.
It's a chance to take - get one, install it, get a clamp meter and see if the alt -to-stator wires reduce in current with headlight on then off.

[ukjules]

I am considering ... just sorting out the connector as I need it to go to bullet connectors . Will report ......
update
they all come with Japanese style connector just need the wire...

q) what amp wire would I need from RR to my harness?

q) and which one do you thibk is best . they say these 2 are suitable candidates

I see no real difference between the 2 items to which you've narrowed your decision. For what it's worth, Shindengen made a SH775AA and a SH775BA for different applications, same form factor, same specs, same function. I don't know that anyone here has ever been able to discern a real difference except for the manufacturer to which Shindengen sold them. Maybe this is the same difference, none.

To my knowledge, no one here has tried these series R/R's that you've linked on their bikes.

As for wire gauge. Same or thicker than what's there now should be fine. Thinner would not do. The pigtails on the Triumph Connector are thicker than the stock wiring on the bike.

When I wired mine up, I re-did all with new OEM style bullet connectors from Vintage Connections.

Also bought their Crimp Tool, which works perfectly w/ some practice.

The one thing I can do is perfect bullet connections. All other elecs I have to leave to this site..... Yes I lean on this site for that and have got away with it for now - begging and all that.

I am likely to get one of these and of course will update .... this thread.
I have been forced to divert from.mechanics or a bit ....

Currently in Greece thinking about the purchase. Indeed the problem sent me to Greece to de stress.
I reckon if I do more Europe wide or even UK wide adventures on gs550e a series RR be useful. (The gsx250e can share it)

The bottom line its 70£ for a normal one. Or £145 for a true series one from UK guaranteed (after my test)
This issue with it bogging down blew my mind until diagnosed on here.

Few more beers and I'll order

Have some Retsina or Ouzo. Should make you decision even more clear.

You can afford to go abroad and pay rapacious sketchy greek tourist prices but agonize over doing the right thing by ordering the series?
I should be so perplexed.

ANother input on modularity for a fleet of bikes. Itd be easy though tedious to catalogue all the batteries out there and find one that fits physically and electrically across all GS bikes.
A few hard rubber spacers and two miserable recurring themes disappear.

[ukjules]

Currently on local lager and wine. It has not come up with the solution yet.
I travel cheap !!! I am good at it and did the same on my GS550E around Europe in a tent. Think I put the adventure on here.

I am here with notebook and pen sorting the issue .... it ain't easy here sat in a taverna by the turquoise sea ....

The next issue is the RR won't fit physically (the one I will trial ) I think Cipher may have touched on the problem ..... I'll have to re read a couple of times to be sure.

I will update as I will buy !!!!
(20€ per night room. Flights cheap)

I suppose that is a few holes on the metal sheet that holds it.

[ukjules]

update :
- drinking wine and lager = hangover
- wine all night only = tolerable head
- Beer all night only = tolerable head.

Regulator ordered. Will fit this week and test.

Back.

I note dimensions of new proposed RR:
Dimensions:
Width: 103 mm
Length: 103 mm
Height: 28 mm
Fixation holes center to center: 80 mm

My GS:
95MM×70MM
fixation holes 68mm centers
(seems common for 80's suzukis ?)

MY GSX250E:
80mm × 46mm
Fixation holes centers 68mm

So not ideal. This is where " this is how I did it " comes useful. The GSX may not have room at all. The GS might but will need new holes drilled at the very least.

[Rich82GS750TZ]

Yes, the SH775 and its clones are bigger than the OEM RR, we know this. If you've read other threads dealing with this, like the "My Charging System Sorted" thread linked in my signature, you'd know this too. Put it where you can, secure it however you can. It needs to get air, and try to make the wire routing easy on yourself.
