Hey! New to this forum and new to Yamaha xs650. Only worked with Sportsters before. A few weeks back i bought a 1982 xs650 SE. Btw is the SE and Heritage the same? From what i can tell from the serial number on the Engine it is a 1982 Heritage, not SE as stated in my papers?? Anyway. I have the frame ready to be rigid and thought i should dive into the Electrical stuff of this bike to learn how it works. From what i can see there has been alot of changes from previous owners. The starter motor was not conected so it was kick only. I can´t find the starter solenoid (maybe you don´t need it with kick start only?) I was looking at the electrical scheme for the SE models but it make no sense. There should be no Ignition unit on the SE but there is one on my bike? If i look at the cheme for the Heritage there is a ignition unit but also only one coil for the sparkplugs when there are 2 coils on my mine?? Anyway, in the pictute are the stuff from the electrical harness except from fuses etc.. I will do the new system with an M-unit and M-button from Motogadget. My question is now what i need to save from the old harness . I was thinking of purchase a regulator/rectifier. But what are the other things? If anyone has a scheme of the igntion system with an m-unit it would be very helpful
