    Need help with a Voltage Regulator problem

    Just checked the stator while running. At idle it is putting out between 22-24 Volts and at 5,000 RPM it bounces around between 80-90 Volts. Seems good to me but still wondering about my last post where the resistance registered 0.7 So, what do you guys think? Is my stator fine and I just...

    Need help with a Voltage Regulator problem

    I am sure the voltage regulator needs to be replaced but on many of your recommendations I checked the stator. I have found that there are no shorts to ground which is great. What I did find is that when testing resistance all three wires registered 0.7 My Clymer Suzuki Shop manual says that...

    Need help with a Voltage Regulator problem

    I have a 2007 Hayabusa bought with less than 5,000 miles and currently has 24,836. About a month ago the starter relay fuse popped - traced the problem to an internal short in the voltage regulator. Because OEM new ones are pretty expensive, I bought a used OEM from eBay. Bike ran and charged...

    where to buy voltage regulator/rectifier

    Thanks so much for the recommendations. However, before receiving them I learned of a bike being parted out locally so purchased a used one at a good price. Bike has over 93,000 miles so really didn’t want to spend a lot. Thanks again for the help.

    Difference between 1st & 2nd generation Hayabusa (hope to transfer sidecar)

    Here is a copy of the email received from MS-R when I asked them about the compatibility. "I bought rds there two years. I have yet to make a side car with hayabusa I do not know if the two chassis of the bike are different. but you must realized the change without much modification." I too...

    Difference between 1st & 2nd generation Hayabusa (hope to transfer sidecar)

    The manufacturer (RDS) sold the business which is now called MS-R. Little hard to correspond because of the French / English. However, when contacted by email they wrote that they had not done any for the Gen II so could not comment on whether it would be a direct fit. Yes, I had planned to...

    Difference between 1st & 2nd generation Hayabusa (hope to transfer sidecar)

    I hope someone will have an answer to the following. I currently have a 2003 Hayabusa with RDS Neptune sidecar but am considering purchasing a very low mile 2011 Busa and transferring the sidecar to the new bike. My question is what are the differences in the frames, front forks, etc. between...

    Need HELP stuck 4000 miles from home 5/23/2010

    Thanks everyone for all of your suggestions. The shop finally tracked down the problem with the help of Suzuki USA. Even though the fuel pump when tested put out more than specified in the shop manual, Suzuki said it should be more (it appears the shop manual has a mistake in it - I am going...

    Thanks for all your suggestions. The bike is still running the same so we are taking it back to the shop in the morning. To answer some of the questions - the throttle position sensor was checked at the shop on Saturday, the FI light is not lit up, have had different tanks of gas in it with no...

    Need HELP stuck 4000 miles from home 5/23/2010

    Thanks for all the responces. We are currently in Monterey California and the great folks at Monterey Peninsula Sports Center were the ones that worked on it on Saturday and said they would attempt again on Tuesday unless we could figure out the problem before then. The bike is stock except for...

    Need HELP stuck 4000 miles from home 5/23/2010

    We are 4,247 miles into a 10,000 mile trip on a 03 Hayabusa with 47,046 miles and the bike has run great until four days ago when it started stumbling under throttle. Anytime accelerating briskly or under load the bike will stumble and jerk. Before leaving the valves were checked and all where...
