Shindengen Series Type Regulator/rectifiers

I don't know it specifically, however I would suspect that it is a std SCR-Type Shunt Regulator, other than it is from a 2019, but that model has been used for quite some time - have no real judgement I'm afraid. Your only option is to try and see - if it gets REALLY Hot it's a shunt system - if it is only moderately warm, it's probably Series. The one thing it is probably NOT is a MOSFET Shunt device as these all are in the FH series. The acid test of course is to measure the current on the stator which would tell what it is.

On Kawasakis the extra pin is for headlight control and is an output tied to one (AC) phase of the Stator - it goes to a relay-logic circuit controlling the starter and headlights that keeps the headlight off completely at key-on until the engine is started and the starter button is released. You would just leave this pin un-terminated on a non-Kawasaki application.

 

Woh that is very useful info.

New user here and joined to pick this back up. I believe the SH866 is a series regulator & will be testing it out soon. All the shunt ones I've seen are potted and this is alloy plated but like said above doesn't have the mosfet prefix. The older zx10/14 bike's regulator was already mosfet so I can't see them going down. The case size also looks larger than the previous mosfet units similar to the SH847.

 

Installed. 13.3v at Idle 14.3 up to 8000rpm. It's inside the nose fairing so I can't check it for heat.
