Hello to all the XS lovers!!! I am in need of some help. I have a 1980 XS that I have chopped and have been riding for about two years now. My charging system has always been finikie to say the least. I have had numerous regulators on it and they work good for a little while and then they go caput... Now I am not having a problem with charging per say but overcharging. It will charge at almost 17+ volts. Stick a new regulator on it and your good for a couple of months. Is there something I have not done right maybe in the wiring harness. I made the harness myself and it is identical to the one you can find on bikebreed.com (XS charging system with combined reg/rectifier). I have found all kinds of info on no charging but have struck out on overcharging.
Any help would be greatly apperciated. I am supposed to ride my bike to Knoxville Tn. this weekend for (get this) somebody wants to take pics of my bike and some buddies of mine bikes for a calender in 2012. We will see how corny it is but who knows. It could be cool.
Thanks again for any help!!!
