    Replacement stator

    Thanks. I've learned a lot reading your posts and everyone else's. When I first got my xs, I didn't really know much of anything. Did a lot of browsing the Internet for information. Was able to get the stator mounted today. Got it all wired back up and started it. At idle I am getting 14.5. When...

    Replacement stator

    Got the new stator in today. Started test fitting and seeing if I was gonna have problems. The Hugh's stator at its mounting surface is 15mm thick. The new stator I got (esg740) is 20mm thick. With my new rotor it seems to fit. I don't have any rubbing. It's pretty close though. I'm wandering if...

    Replacement stator

    Forgot to ask, when the bike has been running for a while, wouldn't the regulator be warm to the touch. I know when I checked mine after twenty minutes, it was cold.

    Replacement stator

    I do have a meter. I was able to check voltage when I first started the bike. With the lights off, I was running about 11.5v. Then I would rev it up and see16v, which I know is bad. This is on a capacitor if I haven't mentioned that. With the lights on, it would drop to 9 volts. After about...

    Replacement stator

    I bought the Hughes system a couple of years ago. But, technically it has only been running for a few hours. Due to other things needing to be worked on, I kept putting it to the side. Every time summer came around I was putting it off because I had another bike and Jeep. My stator is down low...

    Replacement stator

    I guess I forgot to mention that I fried the Hughes stator. My bike would shut off after twenty minutes of running. Wouldn't be able to start it back up till after an hour. Figured something was getting hot. Checked he voltage, it was running up into the 15's and 16's. By that time I checked the...

    Replacement stator

    Ok, thanks. I was thinking of doing the esg740 stator with the banshee rotor. I don't have any ability to shorten the Hughes mounting plate. Will this work with the Hughes regulator? I have a spare. Didn't want to buy another one of I don't have to.

    Replacement stator

    I was wandering if I could get some suggestions on a replacement stator. I originally bought the Hugh's hand built kit with a pamco setup. Also running on a capacitor. I seen a page a month ago with suggestions of alternative replacements, but can't remember where it's at. I know it was a few...

    Thanks for the help, everything is working now. Haven't put in the on/off switch for the lights yet but will sometime. It starts with three kicks anyway, so that aint bad. Just found out I have to have turn signals since they were on the bike originally. Ill be doing that and the switch at the...

    Headlight and Tail Light issues

    Hey there I was wandering if someone could help me with a wiring issue. I have an 82 xs650. I have it running now on a pamco ignition, PMA, and a capacitor. What I am having problems with is the head light and tail light. I should also mention that this is the first time I have ever rewired...
