When the loom was all in bits I had a play at running the race bike (on a PGMII) without a battery (same as a pre PGM F3 bike is, i.e. a stator and a reg/rec but no battery, everything powered from the reg/rec 12v out line), something very odd happened, it all worked, started, rev counter worked etc. but the power valves barely moved. Now I know the F3 PV motor is different, but I have no idea in what way. Don't ask what voltage was being sent across anything, when I saw the PV motor not playing ball I just put the battery back on as I was in no mood for melting any more electrics.

I also know Steve melted an F3 (pre PGM) PV controller by attaching a stock PV motor to it

Maybe one to be aware of when you're playing with not so cheap PGMIII's
