AnswerHi Jimmy,
Your bike has a fairly simple charging system
so it sounds like your new regulator may
be the wrong one or it is shorted out inside.
You can try disconnecting the yellow stator
wires and see if it still blows
the fuse or not. If it does then
the short is inside the regulator unit.
Check that the green ground wire is not
touching the red battery wire
inside the regulator plug.
If it only blows the fuse when the regulator is
connected then the regulator, stator or
wiring is shorted somewhere.
The stator only has 3 yellow wires.
The regulator usually has a green and a red.
It is possible to get the wrong regulator
or even a faulty new regulator.
I would guess the rectifiers inside the regulator
are shorting the red fuse wire out.
Good luck!
