I'm afraid it is not.
I dismantled several of them, made a diagram,  and we bench tested one 
with a Rotax alternator rotor and stator. We also made a comparison with 
a Schicke regulator.
My buddy's students made a study of the thermal behaviour of the 
Rotax/Ducati and the Schicke.
When I have some time, I'll publish a complete summary on the topic.
