hi mate,
sound like the regulator/rectifier had the exact same problem with mine !
so i put on a used reg/rec from a Kwak GPZ600 an its been spot on since!!
its worth tryin ! good luck mate...

if its common am i better not going for a zxr400 rec ?? if so what else will fit?

think most of the kwaks had the same colour code on the looms ??
as i said i put on mine a GPZ rec/reg and the wire colours are exact just a differant connector pin...
(i did a real pro job and used electrical block connectors!!! did the job though!!)
