Regulator/rectifier question for electrical gurus!
« on: August 22, 2005, 08:33:29 AM »
  Hello all.  I have a replacement reg/rec from a honda cb450, will this work for my '77 750 if I change the wire leads to the appropriate male/female terminals?  Are these things "universal" except for the connectors?   Thanks in advance!

No they are not UNIVERSAL!!
And I can't answer your question because I have no knowledge of the CB450 charging system.

They can be pretty interchangeable. As long as the rectifier is for a three-phase alternator and the regulator provides a mean to regulate the coil voltage then they should be interchangeable.You would need some electricity background and both electrical schematics to figure out what goes where.

Perhaps if you post a schematic (or provide an online pointer) for the CB450 Charging system from the Shop Manual, we can determine if it will work on the SOHC4.
