Honda CT90 6v Rectifier Upgrade
This video shows the upgrade MB2505 bridge rectifier.
the KBPC25-10 is a replacement for the harder to find MB2505.
the wiring is as follows
AC leads from the alternator are PINK~ and Yellow ~
the Battery lead Red/White is connected to the + terminal of the Rectifier
the Green ground wire goes to the ▬ terminal of the rectifier
the new rectifier is a simple, and inexpensive upgrade to the electrical system.
Thanks for watching!

Sir I understand you made an upgrade. How can I tell that my selenium rectifier is bad? Is that what I should look at to see if my battery is being chaged? How do I test the rectifier to see if the battery is charging?

you can test the output of the alternator by putting the leads of a volt meter across the positive and negative terminals of the battery while the engine is running you should see greater than 6.5 volts@ 1100 rpm, but less than 8 volts. if you get more than 8 volts you risk boiling the battery if lights are not used to reduce some of the excess alternator output
You may well need a regulator now that you have made the charging system more efficient... to prevent the battery boiling off it's water....
