1990 FXR...eats voltage regulators. Well, seems like every 2 yrs one goes to hell.

Review the sticky for checking your electrical system. If not in the Dyna section, try the Evo Classic section.
For new try Cycle Electric. I'm now using a CompuFire 3-phase 40A regulator and rectifier as I wanted more amps vs. stock due to running a few more items requiring electricity.
I put a Cycle Electric regulator on my 02 Dyna back in 2007. Been pretty good to me, but in your case I would do an alternator diagnosis, check the Electrical,DIY testing the alternator
A poor ground will take out a regulator make sure it's metal to metal... As for Cycle Electric you can't go wrong.. American made and are the best you can get. A 32 amp charging system will provide 13.1v@idle and 14.2v @speed.
