Replacing The Reg/Rec On The VFR800 With A Shindengen FH020AA. Episode 2 - Making A Mounting Plate.
Channel: Kev's Shed
Date: 2020-04-26

Hi everyone, welcome back to the channel!

In this video I am going to continue with the replacement of the old and tired regulator/rectifier on my 2003 Honda VFR800 VTEC.

The replacement Reg/Rec is a Shindengen unit from a 2009 Yamaha MT09 and uses the more modern MosFet technology instead of the old fashioned shunt diodes.

This replacement is split across 3 separate videos.

This is the second of the 3 and in this episode I am going to be making a mounting plate to adapt the Shindengen Reg/Rec to my VFR.

Links for the parts required to make the plate (This is where I purchased them from, be advised that I have no affiliation to the companies in the links whatsoever).
