Shindengen 3phase who works a bit different, here to connect to 748 2phase:

Basically it's like this: Most regulator rectifiers, including Ducati's, are SCR type units. SCR stands for Silicon Controlled Rectifiers, i.e. the type
(composition) of the rectifier components incorporated into the unit's circuit board. While SCR's do the job, some time ago the electronics genies
discovered/developed what is called "mosfet" transistors (Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor). I became aware of them through their use in audio and power amp circuits. These little marvels are increasingly being used in all sorts of circuitry as they are more efficient, have less resistance, when they shut down they do so completely not holding residual charge etc. Simply put they're more robust so when I discovered that a Japanese manufacturer had developed a mosfet reg/rec unit I investigated further. And as you will see if you check some of the links below people have been upgrading several different brands of bikes with mosfet units and getting good results.

You guys w electrical knowledge, will this work f us?
F e, will you have to find one w the same 350W capacity or will a larger do?

I have too limited knowledge to understand if this works f us,
where are you electric wizards, calling Finnpaso?!?

It will work. And better than stock!!

FH012AA has 50W output, is that OK?

Seems like we need under 30W:
It's important to note here that, given the obvious need to charge the battery, the stator wires will have to pass 29 amps (350 watts/12 volts) continuously.
From http://www.ducati-upnorth.com/tech/chargingfailure.php .


Why a 30A fuse here?
So to upgrade the regulator rectifier on 748' from 1995–1998 you'll need:

Shindengen FH012AA
Replacement wiring (see Shazaam's post for recommendations) :
Furukawa connectors x 2
Heat shrink
30amp blade fuse
Suitable blade fuse holder (preferably good quality and water proof) frequently recommended is the Metri-Pack Fuse holder

To protect from overcharging?

I talked to my dealer today.
Not a bad idea, is like checking tha manual sometimes.... :shock:

They nowadays sells 2 Shindengen units:
1 w 3 yellow wires & 1 w 2.
If I got it right on the 2 wire one:
Shindengen no SH579B
Duc sp part no 5404111C
130 Eu f that, 115 f 3wire.
2wire came in 2 versions: SS/M & 916/748, wiring differ.
No possibility f warning light on both IIIRC.

Edit: Shindengen no indicates NOT a FET reg, so I`m still a bit puzzled which to uppgrade to....
