we'll have this sorted by the weekend at this rate :D

many thanks Tony.

Mercury would you be up for doing a few piccies of the reg/rec and frame round the engine on yon your bike too?

I have both old and new(RR98) reg/recs sitting on my desk so i could do a side by side piccie aswell, also have a piccie from Richs bike with the rec/rec under the seat (asuming Mercurys is side mounted).

I have a couple of gearbox output shafts with welded on cogs so we can add a piccie of one of those too....

I have a feeling my rectifier has a DIY heatsink added by a prevoius owner, but I will take a pic anyway.

I have the rr98 in the original place under the seat. Do you want me to send a picture? Upload it in the gallery maybe?
