Harley Davidson Motorcycle Voltage Regulators

The starting and charging system is arguably one of the most essential systems in every engine-powered vehicle, including motorcycles. A failure of a single one of its components may cause poor performance of your bike or prevent it from starting at all. The charging system has three main components, namely a battery, an alternator, and a rectifier. A voltage regulator, although being a minor component, plays a major role in ensuring that the current delivered to the battery does not exceed certain limits compatible with battery characteristics. Usually, motorcycles feature permanent magnet AC generators capable of creating a current ranging between 13V and 15V. The regulator makes sure that the voltage is safe for the battery.

When the voltage regulator is faulty, low charge and dead battery are common symptoms. Voltage regulators can be stand-alone components or share the same unit with the rectifier. Technically, regulators can carry a single-phase or three-phase winding. The excess energy is converted into heat and dissipated. Besides protecting the main power source, regulators ensure that the engine performs at its peak. Get the electrical system back in shape with our Harley Davidson motorcycle voltage regulators.
