Title: Aftermarket Regulator / Rectifier Update, Part Deux

I realized it had been a while since I reported on my regulator/rectifier upgrade.  Since installing the unit and wiring almost three years ago, it's all still working well.  I still get close to 14V to the battery at idle and everything is working as it should.  The bike now has just over 20k miles on it.

Wonderful news John...
Believe me there have been doubters about this ..
But you and Rich Orth, and Jim Turek have had good success...

So how many miles have you put on since installation?

Hey John.... How far are you from the Interstate? Looks like I may be in the Neighborhood on Sat. 9-1... Heading to Denny in Dodgeville, WI. Labor Day Weekend... Quick turn and back to Elkton. Got anything that needs to go East?

So far, I've about 9500 miles since the upgrade.  The original stator failed at 7500 miles.  I upgraded the regulator / rectifier at about 11,000.  I have just over 20,500 miles on the bike now.

I'm only a few miles from the interchange between I-55 and I-80.
