    PMA Banshee Swap Help

    I installed a Banshee rotor and a Kawasaki Vulcan/Drifter stator to my '78 xs650 using Hugh's Hand Built stator backing plate, stator mount & hardware. I had a wire rubbed through by the rotor rotation because I didn't tucked it away enough. When I pulled the rotor to inspect and fix the wire...

    PMA Stator/Flywheel Wear: Need Advice

    HHB PMA on my '78 xs650. The flywheel was slightly touching the stator wires that I thought were tucked away from danger and caused a wire to get exposed. This caused my battery to not get full voltage making the bike very poorly. I pulled the flywheel and noticed some wear on the inside in a...

    Pma and antigravity battery

    Forgive me if this info is out there, I've been searching but can't seem to find much. Can an antigravity 8cell work with a pma, will it charge correctly?

    Blew my LED headlight

    Hey Guys, I blew my LED headlight on my 81'H and replaced it with a Halogen. I did install a permanent volt meter recently to help monitor my charging issues. HHB PMA and R/R were not charging for a while and then it did. In the discussion of going all LED with a PMA I thought I would use...

    best regulator/rectifiers after PMA swap

    Long story short I've cooked two batteries due to a failed regulator. I've been using the early YZFR1 because they are so affordable but I think it's time to make a switch. Any recommendations? The first battery I figured it just went bad because of age and the second battery (brand new) I just...

    Just switched to LEDs all around

    I have an '81 H that has been stripped down to simple systems: Kick only, Shorai LIon battery, Pamco, EAdv, HHB PMA. All unnecessary safety switches and relays have been eliminated. Bike runs great. My problem has been with keeping the battery charged while riding. I'm a rider who likes to...

    PMA Alternative

    So long story short I am looking to do something different with my charging system. I would love to do a pma from hughes, but do too budget constraints I would like to get a little creative. I have seen the use of a belt drive alternator on a xs650 before, but it is a little more "junkyard"...
