    Wiring Solid State Rectifier on '77 XS650D

    Jim, thanks for being awesome and checking that out for me! Alright I'll go ahead and do that. Just to clarify, when you say cut the black wire on both ends you're talking about cutting it at the engine side connector and then at the regulator connector right? Then just route a new cable from...

    Wiring Solid State Rectifier on '77 XS650D

    Thank you for the diagrams that clarifies it a lot! Then I'll trace the black cable and snip it where I have to before splicing it into the brown wire. Besides wiring up the regulator, I also had a quick question about the 3 white rectifier wires. Do I have to keep it consistent with the...

    Wiring Solid State Rectifier on '77 XS650D

    Wiring Solid State Rectifier on '77 XS650D

    Hey, thanks for the reply! Sorry about that I didn't realize I wasn't being clear. I am trying to wire up a combined regulator/rectifier since my rectifier was bad (tested it and it was overcharging), so I figured I'd just replace both the regulator and rectifier with a single...

    Wiring Solid State Rectifier on '77 XS650D

    Hey Everyone! So I recently ordered a solid state rectifier to install in my '77 xs650. I've been doing a lot of reading, but everything I read (including a wiring hardness I found for my year) says the regulator has 4 wires. Two of the wires are the red and black (power and ground) while the...

    I'm interested in the grab bar and the rear special fender (with the square light). What would you do for them shipped to 91306?
