Common Technical Issues: HONDA CBR600F Hurricane

BRAND: HONDA
MODEL: CBR600F Hurricane
YEARS: 87-90
CATEGORY: MOTORCYCLE

TECHNICAL ISSUE DETAILS
The CBR models all have a permanent magnet battery charging system, consisting of a stator with three output wires, which feed into a regulator/rectifier. This unit rectifies the AC into DC and regulates this DC to 14.5V to ensure proper battery charging. The output from the regulator/rectifier connects to the battery through a main fuse. Common faults in this system: 1) Regulator/rectifier failure. The OEM regulator/rectifier is a commonly failing part. Also: the output from the stator is fairly high putting a high thermal load on the regulator/rectifier. Our new ESR531 has been completely redesigned and incorporates cooling fins, and a super heavy duty rectifier bridge. 2) Bad regulator/rectifier main connector. Check the connector on the regulator/rectifier that plugs into the bike wiring harness. You may find melted plastic around the pins.. This will cause poor or no charging and will also often overheat the electronic circuits inside the regulator/rectifier. If the connector is completely burnt up replace both sides of the connector blocks and pins. Our sales staff will be happy to help you. 3) Bad connections inside the main fuse holder. Clean and check charging output again. 4) Stator failure. The stator fails regularly. Causes are age, heat and vibration. Replace when it tests bad. We recommend using the fault finding chart as you can find them on Fault Finding Guide This guide will help you diagnose the charging system quickly.
