Voltage Regulator Rectifier - RMS020-101617

Honda CB650 Nighthawk, CB750, CB900, CBX Super Sport, CB1000 and CB1100 Custom Four K Limited - 1979-1985

A brand new aftermarket voltage regulator rectifier supplied as a direct replacement for the original unit on the Honda CB and CBX four cylinder range built between 1979 and 1985. It is plug-and-play and a direct fit, so installation is easy and no assembly is required. The unit uses a higher grade of electric components than the original part and the quality exceeds the OEM equipment. Every regulator is tested before it is shipped.

Electrically the unit holds a minimum charging voltage of 14.5 V +/- 0.5 V, keeps the open circuit voltage below 15 V and will handle up to 50 A / 500 W of charging current, with an operating range of -20 C to 85 C. It carries 2 plugs, 8 pins and 8 wires on 180 mm and 115 mm leads, with 80 mm between the fixation holes. A complementary connector for the main harness is included, because these connectors are often melted, corroded or defective and are a major cause of repeated electrical issues.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this fit without modification?

Yes. It is a direct fit replacement for the original unit, with the same 2 plugs, 8 pins and 80 mm fixation hole spacing, so it is plug-and-play and no assembly is required. Given how many CB and CBX variants share this area, please confirm the OEM number on your original unit against the cross reference table before ordering.

What is included?

The voltage regulator rectifier and the opposite connector for the main harness side.

How can I tell my old unit has failed?

Look for a battery that will not hold charge, a charging voltage at the battery that never reaches about 14.5 V or that rises past 15 V, lights that brighten and dim with engine speed, and a regulator that becomes extremely hot. Melted or discoloured connector pins are a strong sign the unit and its plug both need replacing.

Why is a second connector supplied?

The harness side connector on these Hondas is frequently melted, corroded or defective and is a major cause of repeat electrical issues. Fitting the supplied connector at the same time as the regulator renews the complete joint rather than leaving a new part wired into a damaged plug.
