daytona 955i Regulator Rectifier Unit

Sounds like it may be something other than the rectifier that is causing the issue. May be best to work your way back from there to attempt to isolate the fault, sorry I haven't had this issues before so not really a great deal of help most probably.

 

Reg/recs do get hot, that's why they are covered with a bloody great heat sink. However, I really haven't a clue what the difference is between 'hot' and 'too hot'! Some people have been known to re-locate them in the airstream. Also check the wiring in that vicinity, in case it also is getting too hot and tending to melt!!
