Enjoy! I originally joined this forum looking for the answer to this issue. Hope others can benefit from the year I've spent working on it.....well not the entire year every day but you know....

Any one you like. I disconnected the box junction going into the rectifier, bent the tab and pulled out one of the yellows from the connector and just soldered into where the other wire is crimped onto the spade, slip it back in and bend out the tab. Also make sure your gauge is grounded...

Ok! I have a final solution for this. It's so simple I kicked myself in the ass for not seeing it sooner. Guaranteed to work, nice steady stable needle. Set tach to p6, high input Patch tach signal wire into one of the hot legs out of the stator (yellow wires going into rectifier) Done. How...

Sounds like you're not wired through the correct circuit. If the dash light is flashing your flasher is working. Idk about your bike but on mine the signal gets 3 wires. A ground, a hot for market lights and a hot for turn signal. In order to use this arangement you need dual filament bulbs. If...

Not too bad... Can't wait to get my tank and covers back from paint to see what it all looks like together.

Starting to develop a direction for this build...since its already chopped I'm not gonna go the cafe route. Gonna go low and fast chopper. Single carb manifold with bst40 mikuni, a yzf600 shock in place of the old gas bag, different bars, clean up the electrics A LOT and put some decent controls...

K3 stock parts: Cam, great shape, 55k miles but minimal wear Stock valves and springs Front fender, chrome is great, one small dent Tach and speedo, 55k miles on odometer. Faces are faded Grab bar. Chrome good, was drilled at one time for rack Koni shocks. Dual spring. Made in USA. 18"...

Re: Xv750 xv920 virago 2-into-1 intake manifold Interested but I'm not that far along in my build yet. Will this run with a single stock carb from the virago or will I need to find something bigger?

Picked up an 82 virago 750 for $400. Motor spins. Some nitwit watched too many tv shows and thought he could customize bikes. End result is pretty fucked. Gonna fix wiring and mechanical first then figure out what direction I wanna take the build in. Would like to do something like cbass but I'm...

Went ahead and ordered one. It's $60.

How do you know they're running lean? I assume by reading plugs? Does it run good? pilot screws will adjust mix at idle and low throttle openings. What rpm range are you running lean in?

Oh, didnt know what an m unit was. 3 yellow go to the 3 yellow from stator White and black go to white and black from field coil Green is ground.

If you look just to the right of the r/r you'll see spade connectors with red tape on them. Those came off the old equipment.

Ricks rectifier should have a quick disconnect that goes where your old rectifier went and 3 spade connectors where your old regulator went. Plug and play. Let me see if I can find a pic of mine wired in..

Nothin huh? Bummer.

Looking at getting one of these but I'm having trouble finding pics of one on a sohc cb750. Does anyone have one? Can you give me measurements? I'm running drag bars with risers and a koso gauge mounted on the bar. Need to figure out if the little windscreen will clear my gauge.

Looks like you have a starter lockout. Check for a side stand safety switch and try either unplugging it or jumping the wires for it.

Starter could be grounded through the switch housing into the handlebar. Check that, then chase back through headlight bucket and you'll find the issue. Its also possible you have a clutch or neutral interlock. I'll study your diagram and see.

Re: Electronic tach issues still with dyna S Glad I could help. I'll have to look at mine and see which wires are - + and signal. Will comment back later.
