5, 6 and 7 wire rectifers
Without voltage regulation built in
5 & 6 wire Rectifiers The rectifiers on this page are suitable for all bikes that take a 5 wire rectifier and do not have a built in voltage regulator. Consult a repair manual for your bike to see if your bike uses a combination regulator/rectifier.
The rectifiers on this page are Not for DOHC Honda fours. A combination regulator / rectifier for the 1979~1983 DOHC Honda 750~1100 can be found on my EM (electro magnet alterantor) regulator / rectifier units page.
All the rectifiers on this page are rated rated at 55 amps constant use. Most OEM 5 wire rectifiers are only rated at 18 to 22 amps. All the rectifiers on this page have 5 wires except where noted.
This and all R255 series rectifiers mount on a single 5mm stud, is 48mm square, 40mm thick and comes with a stainless locknut and washers.
The R255a universal fit rectifier comes with a set of 5 bullet connectors and with enough heat shrink tubing to complete the installation. The wires are 10" long. Longer wires are available on special order, eMail for a time frame and price on special orders.)

The R255a6 rectifier is a universal fit 6 wire rectifier like the one at the top of the page but it has an additional set of diodes for a half wave positive output for bikes that require this. It is sold in kit form as a universal fit rectifier (with enough heat shrink tubing to complete the job.) Like the 5 wire rectifiers on this page the AC inputs wires are Yellow, red is positive and black is negative. The sixth wire from the 1/2 wave positive section of the rectifier is blue
On request it can be shipped with bullet connectors installed for no extra cost.
Any of the bikes that normally use a 6 wire rectifier like this that can use our 5 wire rectifier instead when used with our VR3-U or VR3-YRD voltage regulator.
