What brand VR did you end up going with? That mod sounds like a good idea. Right "now", I just want to get back to some riding - but not SO fast, I end up F.O.R.D.
here's your choices and like josh and shaughn said...still some in the Harley-Davidson system.
VOLTAGE REGULATOR CHOICES--2003-2007 ARE THREE PHASE/2008-2010 ARE SINGLE PHASE. THE VR BODY APPEARS IDENTICAL AND MOUNTS INDENTICALLY...THE WAY TO ID THEM IS THE EARLY STYLE HAS MATCHING TWIN PLUG HARNESS LENGTHS AND 1 PLUG IS LIGHT GRAY. THE LATER STYLE HAS STAGGERED PLUG HARNESS LENGTHS AND BOTH ARE BLACK
Y1302-02A8 EARLY STYLE THREE PHASE---17 LEFT IN SYSTEM--LIST 192.90
Y1302-05A8 LATER STYLE SINGLE PHASE--38 LEFT IN SYSTEM--LIST 179.60
RICK'S ELECTRICS--#10-016H---EARLY STYLE---LIST 153.00
RICKY HUFF AKA RCHUFF BOARD NAME--HIGHLY SKILLED BUELL TECH--HAS ALL THE MOSFET VR INFO-CONTACT HIM
EBAY--EARLY STYLE-- CHINESE JOBS-$60 FREE SHIPPING--I HATE THAT GARBAGE BUT FOR THE PRICE BUY 2 AND TRY.
INSTALL SOME SORT OF VOLTAGE GAUGE LIKE SHAUGHN AND OTHERS MENTIONED. $5 EBAY TINY BOX MOUNTS ATOP LEFT SWITCHGEAR CONTROL-WIRES INTO HEADLIGHT HARNESS--DASH MOUNTED MUCH FANCIER AND SEXY.
you're welcome.

So, I'm wondering how you went about locating the 05A8 regulators. I have called a few places and the only regulator they can find is the 02A8. I'd rather stick with a stock regulator if I can, but this post is the only reference I can't find for the single phase regulator.
Thanks.
