He says it's the reg/rec, and that they're there from the factory

Well it does certainly look like one but it seems an odd place to put it.
Have you looked at another bike that is the exact same model as yours to compare it with as thats the only way to be sure I think.

Well Google images would tend to disagree with his explanation. 5-6 bikes and not one had that part there.

I'll ask the local stealer tomorrow if he knows what it is and where should it be.

I'll also have one to compare it to, too...having tyres fitted tomorrow and the guy has an FZ1

Any luck with this yet mate?


I agree from google i cant obviously see this device so what the foc is it doing there i wonder.

Also, could someone please tell me (see pic above) what that is under the oil viewing window. I hadn't even thought about it until the geezer from last night pointed it out. He seemed to think it had something to do with the exhaust emissions....O2 sensor? Could/should it be removed? I've checked the manual that Unfazed uploaded but I can't see it for the life of me

It is the rectifier/regulator.  If you look at page 2-47 and page 4-4 of the FZ1 manual I uploaded.

I see it.


So the rectifier for the naked model is under the belly pan.


& on the faired model it is..........somewhere else.....i did look for it on the manual but only seen it once floating in mid air above the bike.....good guess that it is under the fairing though...ill have a look next time im in the shed.

In every photo I have looked at of a naked FZ1 I cannot see the reg/rec in the same position  on any of them.
It seems to be in a position where it will catch all the crap thrown up off the road,unless the bellypan comes as standard which I don't think it does.

I think they come with the bellypan slappy.


I seen what u fazed is talking about..,the manual clearly shows it and it is part of one of the process where it shows taking off the bellypan and then the rectifier.


Agreed though i couldn't see any on pics.....we need another naked owner to confirm it.......coz i dunno about that unfazed fella....he rarely gets anything right

[slappy]

Still think its a daft place to put it, glad I bought the faired version now
