Gasgas 450 FSE 2004 Regulator / Rectifier

[Leeky]

Hi gents,

I tested the output from my rectifier last week and found it was pushing out 16.5v at idle.

I've just got a new one sent in the post but when it's arrived its the 2002/3 rectifier (finned version - part number MFS400134009), the one on mine is the Ducati unit - part number MFS450434009.

The connector is the same but before I connect the battery and run it would running the older version cause an issue? Is there any reason why it should cause a problem?

Would appreciate your advice please!

I checked the gasgas exploded diagrams / parts list and the Ducati unit is listed as 2005 MY. On the 2004 parts list it shows the finned type I received.

The vin shows it's 2004, the motorcross shop lists the Ducati unit fitting 04 onwards - no idea why they should conflict!

I've sent it back in the hope I get a Ducati unit in replacement!
