It's a 2008 ZZR600. I know my friend in Texas brought his Triumph in to get service and they loaned him an 09 bonneville with less than 1,000 miles. I don't know why they don't do stuff like that over here even if you sign a contract.

Triumph dealers are a whole different animal. They usually have demo bikes, that's probably what he was loaned.

Yeah, that's true. Come to think of it, both of my friends that got loaner bikes were from a Triumph dealership.

Well I got an email back from Electrosport on my regulator/rectifier. They said to check the plug and see if the positive and negative were mixed. Lo and behold, 5 minutes later, no blown fuses and charging system sitting at about 14.3V under 5k rpms. Still waiting on my stator that was back ordered. Figured I might as well replace it since it's a known issue in the community, (along with the R/R) and the R/R going bad might be a sign. Thanks for the help and input Steve.

Yea... so... tired of looking at the bike in peices before I can get it paint matched... I just decided to throw it back together and see how it looked compared to the street fighter look... It actually looks pretty damn good taking all things into account. LOL..
