Post subject: | Upgraded regulator for xb12r |
Hi I've owned my bike for about 4 weeks now. The first few days my battery died so I got a new one. Everything fine for a couple more weeks, went to take her out today and she's dead again. Spoke to a few people and they said they are 90% sure it would be the regulator. I've looked online and can't find anything in the UK. Does anyone know of an upgrade part as apparently the stock regulators are rubbish |

XB regs are pretty bullet proof, it's usually stators that fail.......or the connector behind the pulley cover. |

Here you go... viewtopic.php?p=251616#p251616 But I'm with Maz on the stator (both stator and regulator went on mine). |

I read it could be stator. Are these easily replaced? I'm not mechanically minded at all. I know someone who builds choppers. Is this something he could do. It seems a nightmare finding parts. And no one in my area that I've spoken to so far will touch a buell. I'm in norfolk |

Can we have an update please Jaiden. There's no getting around experience with these bikes. Maz actually eats, sleeps, and breeds them. Sorry Maz, "breathes" could have been the word I was looking for. ![]() ![]() ![]() |
