Make it the 1st electrical mod you will do on her
Upgrade Regulator Rectifier [Reg Rec] :: GV GT 125 250 R GTR Hyosung
Battery = Go to halfords or Bike garage , ask them to test the battery using a “YUASA LOAD ANALYZER GAUGE” , the big box will probe the battery and the screen will either say “battery good or battery needs replacing”Ā = To save from future stresses of the statorĀ (alternator inside engine) + regulator (rectifier) as they are married as a threesome believe it or not.Ā Ā Bad stator means it will eat the regulator or battery orĀ bad regulator will overspike the battery and it blows , vise versa.
Stator should be fine but if unsure , make a new topic , we may guide you on how to test the stator unitĀ (alternator)Ā , just have a pocket meter handy.
Battery = Yuasa YTX 9BSĀ or 10BS max (12BS/14BS won’t fit, too big)Ā (7BS is too tiny, its for scooters) from halfordsĀ (online ones can be fake from dody sellers or they sell new ones that have rotted on shelf for months)
