    MikesXS Gen 2 ignition issues.

    Absolutely JP I emailed them and waiting for a response. Thank you very much for the advice. Nice to know I am on the right track for my troubleshooting. Thank you Jet, I agree, I have not heard anything nice either. I am hoping there are no contradictions in my set up with regard to using this...

    MikesXS Gen 2 ignition issues.

    Ya, shoot, I thought so on the trigger. I have only one coil, 2 leads for my primary in red/white and the green. then the 2 plug wires. I took an old spark plug and shorted it to ground and nothing my friend!

    MikesXS Gen 2 ignition issues.

    Yes I am having a difficult time trying to find info on how to troubleshoot if at all the gen 2. Is there a multimeter test that you know of? So sorry again. My coil is a newer style high output and I do have 12v at the coil/ Tested the coil as well and have 25M through the wires on the...

    MikesXS Gen 2 ignition issues.

    Hi JP, thank you for the response. Its the red unit with mechanical advance. I recently replaced the mech. advance unit as well with a new one. Battery is holding its normal charge of 13.15 (lithium) and the PMA is charging. So sorry as if you guys can guess lol....its a 1972 xs650 with a 77'...

    MikesXS Gen 2 ignition issues.

    Hi guys, well its been a journey so far. I have almost completed my xs650 project. A month ago, however, I ended up having an ignition issue. I had mikes xs gen 1 ignition running on the bike for years now. This year I installed a PMA/lithium battery setup with a HHB rectifier. Everything was...

    HHB Mosfet Rectifier testing

    Hi Jim, thanks for the reply. I actually took a look at your video last night, very informative. I was reading that within my mosfet there is a little more circuitry in the way on one side promoting less loss, voltage, through the line. I just wish I had a baseline for this unit. Hoping Hugh...

    HHB Mosfet Rectifier testing

    Hi guys. looking for some information. I am exhausted trying to find the answer to my question. I have contacted Hugh but no response yet. I had a stator PMA issue and had received a new one, placed it in and have experienced 3 blissful week with my ride. Yesterday I had trouble starting my...

    Rebuilt xs2 with xs650D (77') motor, no spark issue

    My mock set up right now with rec/reg positive to ignition and battery and other side grounded

    Rebuilt xs2 with xs650D (77') motor, no spark issue

    Boys now I cant even get the thing started again even with the battery set up. Charging system pma looked to be charging the battery but yes I'm not sure on the capacitor. I'll do some more testing if I figure out why it won't start now and if I get fed up I'll go with a lithium in the box

    Rebuilt xs2 with xs650D (77') motor, no spark issue

    I do have another cap I will try next if I can get it started again. I'll give it a few minutes.

    Rebuilt xs2 with xs650D (77') motor, no spark issue

    Ok Jim, well it appears that the battery did charge. (Origional reading was 9.6 and now 11.5) I kicked the motor orver and it started but revved high like the carb was stick open (running makuni) I hit the kill switch now I cant get the blaated thing started again....perhaps I flooded it?

    Rebuilt xs2 with xs650D (77') motor, no spark issue

    Gentleman thank you for the advice. GLJ, the lights come on in the battery mockup when the ignition is keyed on allowing power to coil. Jim thank you ok so this is where I was confused. I just tried it without either cap or battery just to prove that before I saw your post. Ok this makes...

    Rebuilt xs2 with xs650D (77') motor, no spark issue

    Ok so I have no idea now lol.....I just mocked up the circuit with a battery and checked for spark and I have it!? Then I put the plugs back in and ran it, shut it off and reinstalled the capacitor and nothing!? This is confusing because I am generating the power from the stator through the...

    Rebuilt xs2 with xs650D (77') motor, no spark issue

    Hi guys, First post here. I have been looking around for an answer but unable to find a thread to solve my issue. I rebuilt my 72' and put a PMA on the bike with a capacitor, kick start only. I set TDC. The electronic ignition was set up previous to the PMA install with the old stator. My...
