[DucatiST] Re: regulator wires - 2 or 3?

 

My bad, I thought you were talking about the original wiring.
When I replaced my burned out stock reg with a used Honda reg, I didn't just tape off the third stator wire, I connected the third one to one of the other yellow wires. That way two inputs share the current and produce maybe a little less heat.
