Oh yeah! Done well. Lots and lots of info about it on here... http://www.xs650.com/forum/showthread.php?t=5536 just to start.
You need to do a PMA swap (Permanent Magnet Alternator) and install a capacitor... http://www.xs650.com/forum/showthread.php?t=15700&highlight=PMA
There's so many more threads under the "electrical" section I can't link them all.
- this is what i have in my bike...horn circuit is missing as is the second brake switch
...alternator-rd permanent magnet
...10000uF 25V capacitor
...5 pole rec/reg
...batteryless
...kickstart only
...ignitor unit is a pamcopete hall effect sensor mounted in place of the points
