Repositioning the regulator

[Dave G]

I'm just about to replace my crankcase breather hoses with a dinky little filter,all well and good so far.
I was hoping to take out the expansion chamber that sits below my seat on the S2R, however I've found thats where the regulator is bolted to and I'm open to suggestions as to the best alternative mounting point for this.
Should I make some form of mount?,and if so, from what?
Or, is there a better alternative?:eureka:

I remember seeing something about repositioning but as usual can never find the link....however ones guys idea is to mount it above the airbox !!!

however an answer was posted here as well in the 748 forum:

Voltage Regulator. Voltage regulators fail due to overheating because they are located inside the fairing where they don't get enough cooling air. The solution is to either move them to a cooler location or to carry a spare. Actually, I've done both (after five failures). When I changed the alternator wiring, I mounted an Electrex regulator to the back of the license plate bracket and left the Ducati regulator in the stock position. Keep your battery on a trickle charger to avoid prolonged high charging currents.

LOL - I just knew it would be Shaazam! that posted it.....

Somewhere on the frame and in the airflow for definate.My wife's M900 has the regulator bolted to the frame just underneath the bottom yolk.
