The regulator/rectifier converts alternator output to DC and limits charging-system voltage so the battery and electrical components are not overcharged.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I confirm compatibility? Match the Yamaha part number, connector and motorcycle year/model; the source title's broad 700/750/1000/1100/1200 wording is not a complete fitment check.

Is this an OEM part? This listing is for a replacement part. Brand names and OE/reference numbers are used to identify fitment unless the listing specifically states that the item is genuine OEM.
