    97 F3 Rectifier

    This has happened numeral time in the past. Bike shuts down on freeway after about 45 minutes riding. Doesn't happen all the time but mainly when I have a head wind. After brainstorming with my buddy and alittle R&D seems as though the rectifier is overheating and thus cutting off my electrical supply.
    Ill start by applying a thermal compuond to see if this will help the problem. Pictures to come.

    If anyone else has had this problem please let me know so I can keep riding.

    Had the same issue with my '96.

    I swapped out the rectifier with one from a 2005 Suzuki GSXR and haven't had a problem since (it's much bigger than the honda, but still fit nice).
