This is a link to the uprated reg/rec I'm talking about - Mudplug is the guy who puts them together (I believe he's a member here too)
After the first one went I bought a 2nd from eBay for around £75 and fitted a cheap voltmeter (about £4 from eBay for an LED waterproof one), after about 2 or 3 weeks the voltage started creeping up to 17 volts again. I fitted the upgraded one in December and it's been as good as gold since.

I think it's not worth it, as others said, only few extra pounds and you can have a lot of better bikes, GPz500 or CB500, or whatever in-line four around this displacement.
ER5 is cheap, its brakes, suspension, even the fuel cap, but it has very reliable engine.
I've got some experience with '99 CB500 and its fuel consumption was amazing, brembo brakes were also great and the fact that it's a honda makes it even better. It has great reliable engine with 44kw. Just change the oil and fill up the tank and you'd be careless 125mph rocket on the road. Take the brembo brakes version only. The older type has less power and drum brake in rear wheel. ____________________ '87 Honda XBR 500, '96 Kawasaki ZX7R P1, '90 Honda CB-1, '88 Kawasaki GPz550, MZ 150 ETZ

Good, solid reliable bike - ideal for 1st big bike....a dealer is going to want way too much, I'd not pay more than £1k for a mint one no matter how new/mileage, go private imo...they are not exactly rare bikes |
