Sadly didn't have the time or money to finish the bike :'( Being a college student sucks sometimes haha. Ended up getting an inline step-up wired and the headlight putting out 12V, and stuck with an OEM style 6V tail light. Didn't get the switches wired up, but I ended up making a profit on it...

Schools been a bitch lately so I haven't gotten anything done of late. Did test fit the cases from a '73 ATMX and they appear to fit just right. So keep your eyes out for that in the fall when I have money again. Until then I should be doing some wiring this weekend.

Busy week with midterms and projects in school. I am looking at ordering my battery and regulator rectifier so I can get everything wired up and see if it works. Anyone have suggestions on the regulator rectifier? I was thinking of going with a small sealed battery (12V 4A TruGel on Dime City)...

Faster until I swap in a motor ;D

Feel free to point anything out, I make mistakes more often than not haha

I like how I'm an idiot lol

Tested the stator today and it puts out 18V at idle so I will be converting to 12V :D. Now I just need to order up a battery, regulator/rectifier, and a new headlight!

Hello all, just picked up a LT2 for dirt cheap yesterday. Currently only registered for off road (needs head light hooked up, battery, and tail light) but I am aiming to get it back on the road to use as a commuter to and from school. Starts right up on first kick and has a brand new top end and...

Just out curiosity, how would I test the stator output to see if I could swap over a 12V RR and battery?

Cool thanks.Now to get to experimenting ;D. We're doing quite a bit with circuits and what not in the electronics manufacturing class I'm taking right now so maybe I'll actually be putting that to use lol

Yeah the blinkers I ordered are 12W ones. Just to clarify, the step-up circuit I originally posted should be fine for this yes? Or should I go with a smaller unit for each system?

Yeah the only reason I was wanting to convert was to go to LED lights all around. As I said before the bike doesn't really have any lighting so I figured now would be the time. On average what would you say the average wattage/current requirement is for LED blinkers, headlight, and tail light. I...

Yeah I saw his post and I'm pretty interested, but the bike currently isn't street legal (headlight isn't hooked up, no turn signals, no tail light, and only registered for off-road use) so I'm not sure if I exactly qualify haha. I was planning on converting the lighting to LED so from my...

First post in quite a while, school and a wrist surgery have really kept me out of the shop and anything fun in general really. Wondering how plausible it would be to convert a 1972 Yamaha LT2 Enduro to 12V using one (or multiple) of these...

Looks great so far! Really want to find myself a 750 twin
