Rectifiers

Hi Members,

My knowledge about motorcycle electrical components is not great. I think I need to replace my rectifier on my '64 CB77. Are all motorcycle rectifiers the same...interchangeable? Can I use one from a '72 CB350?

I'm not sure what to do with the RadioShack website. Are you telling me I should by the rectifier at the top of the list. It doesn't look the same. You're going to need to explain this like I'm a 12yr old kid.

I have an extra rectifier from a '72 CB350.

Thanks Gary. Seems simple enough.

Just a matter of running a few wires.
