I put mine upside down under the passenger seat. Fits awesome and the wires are already running that direction any ways so it was easy to keep them hidden
Cheers
I thought about that but I would have nowhere for my toolkit then.
I got one of those old style luggage rolls that ties to the forks that I store stuff in for the longer rides. Just farting back and forth in town I dont worry about the tools. If it breaks down I can always call the women or catch a bus.
Marky Mark was telling me about that luggage piece as well. Is there one I can order that fits the max? If so where from?
I just replaced the stock regulator/rectifier on my 2000 'Max with the one from an FZ1 and have it mounted under the rear seat; my only question is when I'm idling, the regulator/rectifier gets a little warm to the touch. Is it supposed to?? Other than that when all the headlights and running lights are off and the engine is idling, the voltmeter reads 14.3 volts. With the headlights and running lights on, 14.1 volts. With turn signal, cooling fan and brakes, 13.8 volts.
I ended up mounting my R/R under the front left side cover. It now sits in the same place where the 3 electrical boxes are located under the cover. I took the big square one off the back and put my R/R in it's place.
The big square electrical box now sits under the ignition box behind where it was originally. Fits nice and snug back there and the connectors fit nicely as well.
