That would be great...but I'm having a mare uploading images ....how do i do it???

Would other bulbs be blowing too if it was a battery problem.......just a thought!

Hi all New to this forum and just posted elsewhere so I thought I'd put my gripe up on the New Members area too. I have a 1977(poss 78) Yamaha RS 125 DX. Headlamp bulbs last less than a mile before the high beam pop shortly followed by the dipped.My mechanic has checked all the wires and corrected some earthing errors but it continues to happen. He has as good as washed his hands of it now. He did sugest the regulator could be at fault but I cant find mention of it anywhere in Haynes or on the web. Even Yambits who are generally good for parts don't know where it is. They are insistent that it is not built into the rectifier. Does it even exist?? I assume it must have one...if so where??? Is there anything else which could be causing the problem? HELP....seems like it should be a simple fix but I'm struggling to even get the info to get started. Thanks

Thanks I'll check the battery................and the new members forum. I would have thought my mechanic would have done that though whilst checking the wiring. Starts and sparks fine so and all lights seem ok otherwise so Im not sure if it will be the battery. Worth a look though. I do have a haynes but keep being told that they dont have all parts listed. Suppose I should get a parts list! Any one fancy scanning one for me!!!!!!!??????
