HPI ....what's that.....

hey chuck should I update my wiring for better charging or leave it alone.

I will let Chuck update his thread, but I wanted to say the experience was awesome. Went and picked up the bike today, Took at 30 min ride with Chuck and the bike is performing flawlessly. I've now had this bike for 5 yrs and for the first time I didn't have to worry about it breaking down while riding.  To further add it's a complete beast and handles just a well. hats off to Chuck!!!! thanks again... 

that is where I mounted mine.. seemed like a good spot and should receive nice air flow.

Chuck, the shift light is adjustable on the Koso tach.. you can set it wherever you like.  ;D

here are the links to the HPI products being used...

Internet down...on my phone right now.
Mike,
If you can post part #'s of this cdi and the extra rectifier / regulator would be great!
Chuck

surething!!!! let me dig up my invoice.

Where did you get that regulator? Is it a reg/rec?

I had to order it separate from treatland... was around 70.00$$

tail light bulb is already an LED.

I want to thank Chuck for taking such good care of my bike.  Looking forward to getting it back and actually riding it..

Here at the instructions for the gauge. your going to have to change the signal setting for the tach to read correctly.  I was able to get a good reading with the dyna S.  the hpi is probably putting out a different signal.

is there any chance the ricks rectifier/reg will work with this unit. I have a new one lying around. I really need to get this bike back on the road.

so i finally got a new rotor from treatland and it actually fits. there was a pretty big difference from the old to the new. for the guys running this setup, did you go with the hpi rectifier/regulator or is there a better option out there.

I sent treatland an email this morning. hopefully they can help

after providing 10 pictures to willy@hpi I am getting no help. I'm being told the rotor is correct and now I'm getting pissed. I'm going to try and send him a video of the issue and hopefully he will see.

interesting, 1st i heard of that. are you sure you ordered it for an early small taper rd? the later ones (european) were larger tapers i think. the lc and rz certainly was. they may have sent the wrong rotor on their own mistake.

regarding the 12v thing, yea, should be it.

I got an email from willy and I was told there is 4 different kit options. I ordered the only rd350 option from treatland. I must have the wrong rotor, because it is very loose.  I provided him a pic of the install and the invoice from treatland
