I'm putting a dyna s on this bike and the electrical system is showing wires that got hot and connector plugs brittle from 40 years and non existent to purchase so I'm buying Z1 parts to replace reg,/rect. and stator to be sure the dyna s is protected. has anyone have any reviews on these parts? Ive looked at Ricks stuff but no receptacle plugs and I don't want a rats nest of wires.

Z1Partsinc.net has the best return policy of all of them. I'd get a Mosfit R/R instead. Easy to wire.

Are you looking for some old wire connections? Something you could splice into your existing?
