I have followed a few threads on ugrading the rec/reg for Honda twins. I went ahead and bought the $20 Onan rec.reg that is meant for john deer mowers. Half the time when I ride it seems to work great. The other half of the time the battery will die at stop lights, especially with the highbeam on. I am using a Ballistic Evo2 4 cell battery and stock stator. Could this be because the reg/rec I have installed is not grounded properly, or could my stator be bad? I wanted to save myself from having to spend the $220 for the Rick's charging system upgrade, and I was under the impression that the reg/rec I bought was basically the same as the Rick's Hot shot upgrade, just $80 cheaper. I am thinking about doing the re-wire so that the battery gets full charge even with the headlight on low beam. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
