I have a 2002 Kawasaki Mean Streak 1500 I'm customizing it can the rectifier be moved so it's not just hanging there.

Absolutely, the rectifier on your Kawasaki Mean Streak 1500 can be repositioned during a customization project. The rectifier is a crucial part of the motorcycle's electrical system, converting alternating current (AC) from the stator into direct current (DC) to charge the battery and power the bike's electrical components.
While relocating the rectifier, it's important to consider a few key factors:
  1. Space and Mounting: Assess the available space on the motorcycle to find a suitable location for the rectifier. Ensure that the new position allows for proper mounting and secure attachment without interfering with other components or the bike's functionality.
  2. Heat Dissipation: The rectifier generates heat during operation, so it's essential to relocate it to an area with adequate airflow for cooling. Mounting it in a well-ventilated area helps prevent overheating issues.
  3. Wiring and Connections: When moving the rectifier, ensure that the wiring can be appropriately rerouted to reach its new location. Take care to maintain proper electrical connections and ensure a secure, stable wiring setup.
  4. Protection: Consider adding protective measures, such as shields or guards, to safeguard the relocated rectifier from road debris, water, or other potential hazards.
Modifying the placement of the rectifier may require custom brackets, mounts, or fabrication work to secure it in the desired location. It's crucial to execute the relocation carefully, maintaining proper electrical connections and ensuring the rectifier's safety and functionality.
If you're not confident in performing these modifications yourself, consulting a professional motorcycle mechanic or technician with experience in customizations can be highly beneficial. They can offer guidance, expertise, and ensure that the modifications are carried out safely and effectively.

White paint work is coming off?

Hi Jo

The Quinny Buzz in Europe has never been made available with a white chassis so this would have been modified by the original owner. We are unable to recommend a way of rectifying this as we would advise against painting the chassis.

Out of range 64.0 KHz / 60 HZ

It might be because of wrong screen resolution. This problem can occur because of hardware as well as software change.


To rectify this issue you will have to set your screen resolution to lowest visual settings. For this purpose you can try restarting your PC to safe mode and then modify your screen resolution.


Sometimes setting your monitor to factory defaults can also rectify this issue.


You can view http://www.techyv.com/questions/why-do-i-get-out-range-message-my-monitor for more information.


I hope this would be of some help.

HELP PLEASE!!!!!!! dead short in the brown power wire and traced it to the voltage regulator pulled top off and pulled the contacts apart and there is no more arc were i cut the brn. wire and touching...

hi go to the other side panel take it off and check the condition of the rectifier its a finned alloy
component and check for heat damage melting of wires etc if there is its toast find a replacement
I have seen these catch fire
its purpose is to turn three phases of ac electrical charge from the alternator to one dc charge
to the voltage regulator so could be the source of your trouble if it has a dead short
the bad news is that this has happened so often on this model of bike you will have trouble finding a good one to replace it with avoid patern replacements as they tend to be very unreliable
honda cb250 rectifiers are a lot more plentiful and can be modified to fit

Need a fan for the extreme Power Plus 600w

What a wastage of power ?
I suggest not to fan more but to reduce heat generation.
Better check, why excess heat generated? Surely low power devices overdrived. Just modify it. Like low voltage schottky rectifier. insted of using 20A per channel, they use 3A per channel. Your PCB of SMPS has the hole to cater the proper rectifiers. Just Search the datasheet, replace the overheat component with higher capacity and you solve the problem.

Sometime, poor screwing of heatsink to transistor/devices may generate excess heat too.If you can replace the fan, you must do the other work I recomend. GOOD LUCK.
