The 1976 and 1977 Kawasaki KZ900's, as well as some very early 1977 KZ1000's
were equipped with a silver, finned rectifier as shown in the pic at left. These units were defective,
and most of these units failed very early....most with the result of a simple battery discharge condition......
However, as seen in the pic at right, their failure can be worse than that!!
This KZ900 owner almost lost his bike when the defective unit caught on fire
while he was riding....... Given that the rectifier has a permanent hot (without the key even on)
amd a permanent ground, this could even happen while the bike is sitting in your garage. If you have a bike
so equipped, replace it, or at the very least disconnect it while the bike is sitting.....
