Regulator/Rectifier Inspection

•Remove:

Upper Fairing Assembly (see Upper Fairing Assembly Removal in the Frame chapter)

Right Inner Fairing (see Inner Fairing Removal in the Frame chapter)

Bolts [A] Regulator/Rectifier [B]

•Set the hand tester to the × 1 k Ω range and make the measurements shown in the table.

Special Tool - Hand Tester: 57001-1394

•Connect the hand tester to the regulator rectifier.

If the tester readings are not as specified, replace the regulator/rectifier.

CAUTION

Use only Kawasaki Hand Tester 57001-1394 for this test. A tester other than the Kawasaki Hand Tester may show different readings.

If a megger or a meter with a large capacity battery is used, the regulator/rectifier will be damaged.
