Ken,
We use silicone hose because it isn't rubber and, therefore, doesn't have to
be replaced. It's permanent.

Hi folks,
Andy Cullum here G-CGDH.
Could anybody give me some info on the latest thoughts on replacement of
The Ducati voltage regulator/rectifier as we think ours may have failed.
Any advice is gratefully received.
Best regards
Andy Cullum.

Andy - I bought the Schicke GR6 regulator
http://www.schicke-electronic.de/dgr3.htm
but I have not yet got to the stage of installing it in my Europa build. Despite
the LAA standard mod SM12970 showing the supplier as Conair, I found they did
not have any in stock ("there's no demand") and were uninterested in ordering
one for me. However Herr Schicke was happy to deal direct with me in euros and
communicates well in english. He doesn't do credit cards or paypal so I did
an international bank transfer and that worked well although the bank fee for
doing it was higher than one might have hoped!
I'm sure others are actually flying with the GR6 - but maybe not for longer than
the mean-time-between-failure of the Ducati unit - so perhaps no-one can say
yet if it's more long-lived.
BTW, before you ask, I already sold my Ducati unit!
Hope this is of some use.
in friendship
Rowland

My Ducati lasted about 1100 hours / 9 years and I replaced it with
a Schicke. So far it has been working fine.
They are not available in the US so if you want one you will need a find
soul in Europe to send it to you.
