On the lc history page it's says that a 31k rec/reg will not work with a F11 or an R stator. Is this only plug wiring or is electrical incompatibility

both, the 31k is the same as an LC, so has 6 wires going to it, the F2 has 5 wires, one being earth and only one live, the 31k has 2 lives, one switched one permanent, its all to do with half wave and full wave rectifirs, but I won't bore you with the science - but they are incompatible

I am running a LC 6 wire reg with a F2 stator on my hybrid been on for years with no problems

I did not wire it in my mate did so i will have a look tomorrow and report back with which wires go where Dave I have put 2 new batteries on in 6 years but they where taken off the bike and left in the shed over winter without charging them and when i came to charge them after 5 months they would not hold charge so you could be right Dave I just put the battery not holding charge with them being left so long I will keep a check this year and check what the battery is charging at |

The wiring is as follows Dave the 3 whites go to any of the whites the red to red the black to a good earth on the the frame and the brown runs into the red and yellow for the head light as it goes into the fuse box hth
