This small electric module is located right above the engine under the gas tank. I am going through my wiring harness and I noticed it was unplugged. My bike ran before I started taking it apart so I guess its not needed. Looks like 2 wires connect directly to it. Any ideas?

Well, here is my pic for the calendar. My computer crashed while editing it so it took HOURS and still isnt perfect. But it'll do. New Macbook pro is in the mail. :thumbsup: Taken in front of Doak Campbell Staduim, Home of the Florida State Seminoles, currently #1 in the country and soon to...

This is a Cafe bike I started a couple months ago for my friend Rick. I was already deep into my Tracker build when he asked me to build this bike for him. Unfortunately I had not taken that many picks thus far, but will post what I have and try and keep up with it better as I go. We started...

Almost done, just waiting for the headlamp, fenders and tank knee pads, I modelled it on a nice Bonneville scrambler I saw in the UK Don U,:bike: Sydney

So Ive been working on my 79 650xs trying to clean up all the wiring. Ive already got rid of what I could. I was planning on reusing me stock rectifier and regulator because they both work but I was looking through my parts box and I found a brand new regulator/rectifier unit. From what I...

As XSLeo has requested this, and I think it's a great idea, I want to start this thread up for OLD bikes. Anything I think pre -'s should be acceptable, UNLESS you have a later bike with family in the photo. The older, the better! I'll start............ My granddad on his(unknown at the...

This is a picture of my Granddad on his motorcycle! A little bit of what I know, He bought this when he was about 26 years old, I THINK that would be around 1946ish, not too sure as he passed away when I was very young(and I'm 40 now!) This is in South Africa so I don't know if it's a...

So i recently decided to have a bike built for me. I chose to have Brett Ohland of 2Eight Customs build it.. He was very easy to work with, super nice, listens,takes ideas and makes them happen, and he didn't even charge and arm and a leg :) he is exceptionally talented at what he does!! all in...

Yup, my Betsea's 'done'! At least with modifications, aaaand just for this year. I've got a bit of gas leakage from the carbs so a rebuild is in order, but all is well other than that! Cam chain, valves & timing adjusted, carbs synched & UNI pods added & shes running great except for that drippy...

Barbers vintage festival is the weekend down in birmingham alabama. Who plans on making it down there? I'll be going down Saturday morning and coming home Saturday night.(2 hour ride) I'll post pics when I'm back.

Was up early this morning to go out with the bike all day until my nightshift at work starts, decided to take a few pics on the way. Still frost on the car when I went out.. First stop was at an old sandpit where we once blown a car up with dynamite, that shit is funny! Also...

Hi all, Not sure if this has been posted before. Stumbled across a cool website with plenty of vintage road tests covering the most popular manufacturers. http://yeoldecycleshoppe.wordpress.com/about/ Here's the link for a 6 page review of the 1977D model...

Collected early model data back in the early 2000's. Thought it would be handy to other forum members searching for early model info. You can look in my albums or use these links: Early model brochures - XS1, XS2, TX650, TX650a - Yamaha marketing XS1, XS1B, XS2, TX650 Service Data (Yamaha...
