Can I just ask, have you taken the bike for a test ride with the new regulator fitted and if so, has your stutter gone? Also, how much was the new regulator? Might be ordering one tonight to see if it fixes my stutter too!

yes ..been on a short test ride and theres a massive improvement,very smooth from 2000 all the way upto the red line......your do well to get a secondhand regulator for £20..ebay,breaker etc....i have a spares bike so stole it off that
never noticed the lights being dim....hard to see as they are not too good when working well :\ ......next step is to put all swapped parts back on my spares bike execpt the regulator and put the supposed faulty regulator on as well and then test ride the spares bike which ran well before stripping the parts..
the "stuttering one" mot has expired at begining of the month and needs a new front tyre to pass,then book in and have a propper test ride on way too mot station..(no tax )....sounds like a good plan to me
Well I'm delighted for you that it's definitely fixed at last, and if the stuttering moves to the donor bike that'll be confirmation that the regulator is to blame.
How it's doing it is a mystery though. Maybe there's a dodgy connection in there that resonates at certain engine revs and puts out enough noise/radio frequency interference that it swamps the signal from the pickup... feels a bit far-fetched, but normal regulator faults result in the battery not charging or overcharging.

This ain't a bad price for a new one, but if i were to be truthful, i'd be absolutely amazed if you both had the same problem!
