    Electric Start Kills The Battery

    I'll start by saying that I'm new to the XS650 and motorcycles in general, but I'm doing my best to learn what's what. I thought I had things worked out and my 1976 XS650 running a few weeks ago, but now I'm having trouble with it again. I first thought it was the charging system, but today I...

    Creating a new regulator rectifier from scratch (1980 and up)

    The connection between a bad rotor and the fuse blowing? B circuit type.

    I have experienced a lack of charging due to a bad rotor before (5 or 6 x's). But never had this happen before. Switching the key on the fuse ('77 single fuse system) would blow. Checking the coupling at the regulator I found continuity on all 3 wires (blk/grn/brwn). Unplugging the coupling for...
