Steven,

Some years ago we conducted some investigations on the Ducati-Rotax 
alternator and regulator, and the Schicke GR-4 in a university electric lab.
The following abstracts of our findings might be of interest :

I finally elected to use the Schicke GR-4. The newer GR-6 is advertised 
as having better heat rejection properties.


FWIW
Best regards,
