I purchased a RR58 for my Honda NC30 as a replacement for the old original one that came on the bike ,and was well known for causing problems on these older bikes . The Electrex RR58 was recommended to me and was promptly fitted as per instructions all connectors soldered and I even purchased the correct crimping tool from them ,just to ensure I did the best job possible! This is where my problems started ! Two rewires due to melted phase wires , and then I started to question, is the RR58 working as it should ? I questioned Electrex regarding the voltage that the unit should be charging at , as their paperwork said 13.8 -14.8 . My one was charging at times 15.20 ! Russel said their paperwork was incorrect and (needed to be updated ) ! I actually took my stator , which I had already tested , and the RR58 which they tested and they said nothing was wrong despite the fact it totally over charges compared to their own spec on the paperwork . It has now melted the three pin plug connecting the stator to the RR58, Luckily as soon as I saw smoke I stopped the engine . That same night I purchased a brand new Honda part . So with the same stator , battery and a new plug fitted my bike now runs and would you believe it , depending on whether the lights are on or off and engine RPM, my voltages are pretty much bang on the what Electrex claim in there own paperwork , but there unit does not replicate! Lots of wasted time and money .Very unimpressed!
