    Yes sir, more than 3 hours it was in Bangalore traffic. And i need not tell you how blore traffic is

    Couple of days back i rode for about 6 hours in Night and after that 6 hours the battery struggled to take self for first time the next morning, but just within a min it was all ready n self was working fine.
    So if the battery can with stand for 5-6 hours continuous riding then is it really necessary on all these mods ???

    So now if i have to put back the rectifier and check its working then will have to ride for 6 long hours again.

    Another bike is diesel bull sometimes I am getting 42V . 100/90W bulb glows like a plasma white and too much brightness. I am afraid i will go burst. Once the regulator warms up it comes down to 14V. I cant get new regulator for diesel bullet. It doesnot have battery
    The Horns are already on DC.

    In the second case, the regulator is faulty. Maybe a newer model regulator will fit. Not much idea here... wiring diagrams will help in this case.

    Yeah, 14.4V is somewhat like the industry standard.

    Yeah circuits are available? What specifically do you want to do?

    Yeah they wont maintain exact same voltage. But that wont lead to any explosion. And exact voltage is above 13.8V. Not exactly 14.4. That depends on the bike manufacturers. The more it is above 13.8V the quicker it will charge. But the battery can overcharge and thus have a shorter battery life. If it is just 13.8V it will never overcharge, but charging will be slower. May lead to battery problem in stop n go traffic. So, it is a balancing act.
    Thanks. I read somewhere the alternator charges the battery at 14.4V. Even the hero honda cd100 charges at 14.2V. I am curious to know is there any voltage regulator circuit available to limit the output to 12V for the electrical system apart from battery charging.
