I assume the voltage only goes TOWARD the battery from the rectifier so there's no concern about it being connected full time to the battery?
Yes the rectifier blocks any current flowing from the battery to the earth via the stator.
I found this very intoresting as I used to be an automotive electrician before a career change, and the maximum permitted voltage drop on a starting circuit is 0.25V on the pos. and 0.25 on the earth.(i.e. 0.5V overall) So to see that the volt drop on the charging system of a bike is as high as 2V amazes me as the alternator output is only rated at 40A.
I shall be doing the mod ASAP as I don't want to get caught out.
