    Im putting a headlight on my bike and ordered a regulator off ebay cause didnt have one. It keeps blowing the headlights right after i start it. Can i test the regulator?

    The headlight bulbs are only 12v hence them blowing when its started. you should have between 12-14v on idle and under load

    Also the regulator you got, is it just a regulator or a reg/rec?

    I usually use single wire snowmobile regulators they just hook to a power wire and bolt to a ground. They are available in 6v and 12v a lot of shops have them in stock.

    i think its just a rectifier. I looked it up on h0alls and thats whats it called but i cant find a regulator anywhere. i have a reg/rec off an old atv i might try to get to work

    I still cant figure it out. I have a blue, black and yellow wire coming from stator. My rectifier looks like this http://www.ebay.com/itm/1991-Husqva...Parts_Accessories&hash=item20bcc3667a&vxp=mtr if anybody can help me get this worked out it would be greatly appreciated. Im not sure where each wire goes on rectifier and how to wire up headlight correctly
    I would like to be able to add battery cause plan on putting dual sport kit on. Is there a reg/rec that i can buy to make this work thanks

    Many. Too many.
    I think BDL has it right, just get an AC regulator, the lights will work fine on AC voltage about 13acv. That rectifier you have is simply converting AC to DC voltage and still needs to be used in conjunction with a regulator. Sometimes in older systems that didn't have a lot of excess wattage production over what the bike uses, would just have a battery to control the voltage spike.
