i have a 1979 yamaha 650 engine.....it is a points engine...... do i still need some sort of electronic ignition or some sort of an ignighter ?
so what would be the complete wiring system to run that engine in a buggy..... less any other thing like lighting.No, just the points sets and a condenser pack. Also two 4 ohm coils.
Battery, ignition switch, starter solenoid, starter, coils, points, condenser, plug wires and caps, and plugs.so what would be the complete wiring system to run that engine in a buggy..... less any other thing like lighting.
just the motor....... i thank you !
hey ! thanks a bunch.....got it .Battery, ignition switch, starter solenoid, starter, coils, points, condenser, plug wires and caps, and plugs.

well if i had got the whole bike i would have restored it to new..... i just got the engine....in good shape.Interesting, an xs650 buggy, any pictures?
Did you get the whole bike or just engine?
what if i use an alternator and wire the system to that instead of the original charging system.... which would be removed altogether ?You'll need to make the charging system work too or the battery will go dead, and this bike needs the battery to run. The ignition draws off it when the revs are low. So that means you'll need the regulator and rectifier.
Who's building this engine?after the researched 650 twin has all the bugs worked out of the new design...... it will also be built in a water cooled version .
i am.... i have brain stormed this idea for 40 years..... i am 64.....& i know very well what i am doing.Who's building this engine?
the difference is that i plan to use this motor for all kinds of vehicles, snow mobiles, jet skis, buggys etc..........There is an alternator on the motor already, but like most, it needs a regulator to regulate it's output and a rectifier to convert that AC output to DC. Pretty much any alternator you used would need these things.
This motor (and bike) uses a 3 phase automotive style alternator, not what you're talking about (a PMA).
actually this alternator is used to keep charge in the battery.... there is no other charging system.....and it can be wired for a regular xs650 wiring system.There is an alternator on the motor already, but like most, it needs a regulator to regulate it's output and a rectifier to convert that AC output to DC.
