motovita Posted July 10, 2018 Report Share Posted July 10, 2018 I need a replacement rectifier for an older Scorpa that, as yet, I haven't been able to source through Scorpa sources. It is the little black box plugged into the fan that most of us have seen on Trials bikes. It is marked Leonelli with a number 1210 stamped into it. I can't find any reference to it on the internet and Leonelli seems to have no presence here in the USA for me to contact. Can anyone suggest where I can find this part or get specs for it so I can replace it with something else? I don't know, for example, if it also regulates voltage or has any other functions.

Yes, it looks like that but with one different connector, which I could change if I knew that they were functionally equivalent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony27 Posted July 10, 2018 Report Share Posted July 10, 2018 The 3 other options Splatshop have are these, hopefully 1 is correct. If you email the guys they should be able to confirm if there is any functional difference https://www.splatshop.co.uk/leonelli-regulator-thyristor-12v.html 2 wire https://www.splatshop.co.uk/sherco-diode.html 4 wires as fitted to the older generation Shercos & Bultaco badged bike https://www.splatshop.co.uk/sherco-diode-comex-new-fan.html 4 wires as fitted to later model bikes that Scorpa also use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the advice, I've been waiting for a response from Birkett. Kevin at Scorpa USA, who imported and sold the bike in 2011, told my local dealer that we were on our own trying to find this part. They apparently have no interest in, or intention of, helping source or identify the part. Edited July 10, 2018 by motovita Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Note the different terminology regulator vs rectifier. Edited July 10, 2018 by motovita Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whoa up there the different terminology as you put it isn’t....the rectifier is a different component to a regulator, both doing exactly as their name implies...unless it’s a combined rectifier/regulator they are offering??

motovita Posted July 29, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2018 The Follow Up I never did find any info about the Leonelli part #, but after being blown off by both North American Scorpa importers, who apparently couldn't be bothered to find the current Scorpa part # which they most likely had in stock, June at Birkett Motorsport came through and posted me the rectifier I needed. Now that I have the new part # I'm sure I could order it here in the USA. Glad to have it sorted out, but it shouldn't be that hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
