Recently installed a PAMCO with E-Advance and a TC Bros PMA. THe PMA kit came with a regulator rectifier. Initial test riding went really well, rode it most of the day yesterday, bike was running great.
Today I was about 5 minutes into my ride, had just accelerated to about 60mph (rather quickly) and was cruising at about 55-60. All of a sudden I lost a cylinder. So I immediately turn around to try and make it to a gas station I had just passed. About 1 minute later I lose the other cylinder, I kill the switches and roll into the gas station. My Reg/Rec is smoking/boiling.
Is this known to happen with the TC Bros Reg/Rec?
I have it mounted and wired correctly. None of my fuses have blown*. Initial testing was showing about 12 volts at idle and 13.5 at high rpms.
Now the bike is dead. No electricity at all, so did my battery fry as well? I just walked home and posted this, trying to figure out if there is an easy way to get the bike home, it's only about 1 mile away.
Here is the Reg/Rec http://www.tcbroschoppers.com/replacement-voltage-regulator-rectifier-unit-for-xs650-pma-kit.html
*I later discovered I did blow a fuse. Info below.
