Compufire part # - checked online..

[philosopheriam]

Hey folks,

In a seach, it seems like a lot of people are using the compufire 55402 R/R unit - I went on Compufire's website and cannot find this part # in their catalog.

Was the 55402 discontinued and superseeded by a new part #?

If so, what is the correct model - I have an 1982 Suzuki GS650G and need to replace the R/R unit.

Thanks!

Compufire sells most of their regulators in a kit with stator. You can get one here: http://www.amazon.com/COMPU-FIRE-REG.../dp/B0035U7LRM

Well, the compufire was outside of my buddy's budget, so I purchased a

SHINDENGEN MOSFET FH012AA REGULATOR/RECTIFIER KIT

on Ebay. I'll wire it in manually and life should be good :-)

OLDVett66, I dont see any matching stator in the picture. Is htis matching setup available for an 03 Gs1100Sd Katana ?

Sorry, I was not clear. The Compufire is aftermarket built primarily for Harley's, and sold as kits with a stator. The single 40A 55402 is sold by several online vendors, one of which I linked. Compufire's site doesn't seem to list it individually. They don't make stators for our bikes. I am using my old stock stator, and Electrosport makes aftermarket over-wound stators for 20% more output. The compufire turns on and off to regulate, the standard R/R units shunt to ground when overcharging to regulate, therefore working all the time and heating your oil all the time.
