Just missing the link, DogBunny, would be really interested, thanks

It would, but Not until i've got it working. I may be doing it all wrong, hence the question

Hey Guys, just fitted a Honda CBR1000 Clutch slave cylinder to my casing - all gone well, with correct allignment etc I'm using the Honda Clutch pushrod, as it has the rounded end for the slave cylinder. I need some views on how much play I should leave with the cylinder at rest, I was think...

Here you go: https://www.xs650.com/threads/fitting-a-yamaha-xs750-front-end.62158/ Depressing to see it was over a year ago and the bike is still not on the road, but major health issue and carer duties got in the way - will have it completed before end of summer 🏍️ !

Found a UK/Europe supplier for the type A Regulator via the compatible OEM number 64808140 Can this thread be added to the tech section please? (maybe add my installing XS750 front end thread from last year at the same time ;)) Thanks Guys Barrie...

If your not on it already, be worth joining Yamaha XS650 UK Owners on facebook - no Gurus on there like Gary and the rest, but worth following 👍

Ah, confusion all around, no probs. Unfortunately at the minute i'm stuck in the house NOT the garage, so have been going deep into this subject and ended up being a bit of a nerd (do you have nerds in Sweden?) Thanks for your input Jan, reckon I've got the info. I need now (just not the parts...

Hi, the link you sent is not really relevant as all the diagrams relate to Permanent Magnet Alternators, so there are no brushes as in "our" Electro Mechanical Alternators (think that's best way to describe them) I have done the research on the forum via Gary's link and there is a suitable...

No problem, just trying to help ;) Garys right, you have to look at all the components in the order he suggested, otherwise you will end up in circles. Try this link to the TECH section under the main menu, always a good place to start...

Hi, you might not get a response, adding onto my original thread, as its not the same issue or question. (XS1B is the earlier type B Alternator) Best bet is to follow Gary's link above to read up on the options. Then probably start a new thread with any issues or questions Hope that helps Barrie

Thanks, i'm using an XS750 complete front end including instruments, going to fit one in the cluster

I had a good read of the thread, and only part I was unsure of is with the replacement 2 wire Regulator (Ground through body type) how can you tell it has the correct "when the voltage gets high, cuts off the Ground to the Rotor" characteristics? I can only think, you need to find the vehicle...

Thanks Gary, while i'm stuck in the house at the moment, I tested out the unit and started delving deep into the subject, so I can have everything ready. Just had a look at XJ650 and XJ750seca wiring diagrams (probably had a different name in the USA) Was surprised to find a non PMA charging...

Guys, thought I would come to the guru's for a definitive answer on this one! My combined Reg/Rec is testing faulty on the diodes, so I thought I would ask on our UK facebook Forum if anyone new of a replacement that would work, that did not cost near a £100 Been advised that later model...

Thanks Guys, main reason for fitting the later brush holder, is all I have on my good stator is a pair of wires - with original ring terminals attached :( Good call with the screw length!

Not in the UK 5twins, parts are not so easily available, I think the people converting to PMA are hanging on to the spares and you have the issue of IF the windings are any good, Should not be a problem positioning the TCI pick-ups thanks to the Gonzo project ;) I have to go back to my original...

Quick question Guys, Looking to install the later Brush Holder - seems easiest way and reasonably easy to drill and shape. However this does leave one of the wires slightly short - before I start tugging on wires, has anyone had success pulling slack past the windings on the brush wires? My...

Guys, I'm finally at the "getting a spark" stage of my build. I've got a suspect original TCI Box that I could not get to function on my test bed so I've picked up a couple of GN250 boxes and just sorting out the temp wiring set up this weekend. Am I right that only the Black "Ground" and Orange...

Hi Raymond, My plan was to get as much oil in the pump/oilways/head as practical before turning over already have assembly grease on the cams and followers. My main concern is splash feed (never liked the idea) for the Bores/Pistons etc. If anyone can confirm if I can use the TDI coils for the...
