Millions of engines all over the globe use shunt regulators. I guess they all burn up the stator too.Dogma

Duanage, usually works/rides 550's and the Honda R/R has been especially gifted with having better than normal performance for a shunt R/R. I think that is where is sensitivity to my comment comes from.Last edited by posplayr; 01-04-2018, 12:22 AM.

Personally, I would call it a gamble. I like real Shindegnen myself, second hand over new clones but oh, it'll likely keep you on the road awhile....
MZS is apparently a clone outlet. For what it's worth, it looks like you can find the same thing here (link below) cheaper as an example of How-ToShop! ...basically I'd expect they are all the same device with possibly different plugs on the end.... they can be pretty "thrifty" on the wire quality in China, plastic sheathing and the minimum of copper etc...
