    SH775 R/R ordered Quick question to those that made the switch.

    Ok, old replacement R/R died (unless there's another answer for a 18volt reading at 5000rpm across the battery leads) Ordered a SH775 on Ebay from DBElectrical.. Now the question.

    Does anyone know where to get the connectors that fit the R/R unit? I've searched on ebay, amazon and even drove down to the Polaris dealership (who looked at me like I was an idiot...he might not be wrong) who couldn't find the part or the part number for the pigtail for the R/R unit. The R/R unit get's here on monday 8/13.... would LOVE to figure something out other than solder and epoxy in the connector port. Meanwhile I'll be cleaning fuse box and wiring harness connectors and checking continuity.
    Thanks for your help in advance. sh775.jpg

    i bought this kit from amazon. Worked perfectly. there are no instructions, so make sure you get your wires crimped on the terminals, and the terminals in the right slot before you put the locking rectangular block in.



    My concern for you is (if the pic you posted above is the RR you bought) that you may have bought a shunt RR knock-off, and not a series SH775. They look the same, the connectors look the same. As far as I know, unless the unit is dirty and used, like this one, and actually has SH775 stamped on the top fin, it's probably not the real deal.

      You did not buy a SH775, that's a knockoff shunt type R/R. The real deal Shindengen SH775 is a SERIES type R/R that protects the stator.

      As for the harness, you can get a Triumph harness listed under P/N T2500676 which works well for adaptation. It's got the proper connectors too, pre crimped.

      You can buy brand new SH775's but the price has gone through the roof on them. A couple years back they were $70 new, now they are more than double that. Finding a used unit is the way to go, and making sure the lettering is on it before purchase assures that. Good advice. I've never heard of anyone getting a bad SH775, even the used units, so the risk is low.

        Is this what you purchased https://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-Regulat...LH_TitleDesc=0
        If so or you paid a similar price then it's a shunt copy you cannot buy new for that price.
        an alternative to the kit in another post is to buy a triumph link lead like below



        Sh775 the ones I have are sh775 BA I think AA is off a jet ski same thing I believe

          well, I guess it will do for a time.. like the last 2 shunt R/R's I've used.... I'll put it together and bite the bullet on price for the fall make-over... Thanks for the information.. but I'll live with what I bought for the rest of this riding season... I plan to do some major work once the weather turns this fall/winter. Gaskets and major rewire rebuild the brake calipers and masters.

            here's one on ebay now. $39.99*. That's not even a BB, let alone a bullet. i'm sure there are more.

                which one did you buy. I went back and checked my link and it went to a different item. So I changed my post to another $40 one. Maybe because you bought that $25.00 one But if you have a link to actual item you bought I'd feel better that I didn't give you the wrong link.

                  I got the used one that showed the "SH775" stamped on the Stainless steel base.... 25.99 free shipping...


                  Thanks... I did look at a couple ..but coupled with the advice given that even a used one has been tried and true.

                    Your link and the one I originally posted go to an item that has this picture. IMG_0154.jpg
                    And that's not a SH775. Something goofy happened with the link and I don't know why. A sH775 will wave the stamp on the top fin as in fastbysuzuki's picture above. It may be on the back as well but I don't think so.

                          Glad to help. I just went through this myself. Good luck.
                          I assume you're getting good voltage from your stator, around 90VAC on each of the 3 legs and no legs shorting to ground?
                          I (and everybody else) also suggest eliminating the headlamp loop if you haven't already. And use a single point ground.

                            The SH775AA is from a SeaDoo. You can see the SeaDoo part number on it: 710001103.

                              2 months ago I replaced a burnt out chinese stator with one from Rick's Electronics... of course as I'm putting things back together I'll check those voltages.. but I think the main fuse blew before much or any damage was done. ... but I'm going to take my time and run through all the checks... I've been meaning to do the headlight loop ... anyone know where the link to that is?
