Great Thanks Ash for that.

I will have a look at it tomorrow and I have a small headed Magnet if needs to be to get down the bolt Hole, as I say I have the No 12 spring but will look at the 8-9 first before I go any were else...... as i have already last week took the casing off as I said before I put a new Clutch in with new springs which were EBC ones which they said were 15% stronger....... that when I got my cases back from spraying and fitted them in with the clutch new clutch plates and it so heavy, so last week as I say took the case back off and fitted the old springs and it is fine now...... just wish I had known More about the 2nd gear Problem while I had that to bits I could have checked that all out while that was off ha

HI

Well with the Help of the guy`s on here I have finally got the bike out for its first run today, first went to petrol station to get fuel only about a 1/4 of a mile from me it went fine, filled her up pulled away and it was good for about a mile and it went on one cylinder made it back home and it was the right spark plug and they are both New ( Now got two more cumming ) so I hope that was it....... but the thing that got me is the Gears it`s ok going up to top but when you come down the box it seems to go from fourth to third ok then seems to jump second and go right down into first gear ...it don`t do that all the time tho now and again......... I have Not touched the Engine well only to put a new clutch in but the bloke I got the bike off said it did Do that but I could not try it out at the time as it was Not running..... do anyone know what it could be ?............as don`t fancy taken the engine to bits after doing all what I have done to it ?

Cheers

Here is the update Ash.

Well wired all up and the first picture is the Regulator mounted under where the Rectifier will be mounted on the top, the Heatsink which the Rectifier is mounted under that, and the other picture is a little gadget that reads the out put and that is with Lights On and revs at 3,000 ... but I will still do the test using the 10A on the meter ( Without the starter  lol )  to check that.... but i hope all should be there Now... that Rectifier do get warm Ash I Know it is meant to as why you said mount it on a heatsink which glad I did that.

So how do you think that is Now ?

Cheers

Mo

Hi Ash

Yes you are right in that I have made a wiring up only from the stator to the rec/Reg but Not wired them in yet ( that's where I Need your help please as to how )

yes I Know where the wires go into the Rectifier but I am Not sure where to put the green/yellow from the Regulator as you said that go`s to the yellow..... But the bit I don`t get is it on the wire before it go`s to the rectifier ? as I said I have joined the two stator wires together to give max out put to go to the Rectifier but where do I put that Green/yellow to ?

Just my way of thinking Not being up on electrics is that I thought you would put that on the red coming out of the rectifier so if the volts got to high then that would dump the excess to ground.......... as I say my thought was if I put it on the yellow it would be Getting the AC voltage going in to the Reg ?

all confusing Ash to me lol.......... more of a mechanical I am lol...............

cheers Mo       

oh

that wire Ash is to the Battery, as I said it go`s in the wiring loom and comes out again to that right hand side of that plug that go`s back into the rectifier so that should not be doing that you say ?

and still a bit puzzled at the regulator yellow/green to go to the yellow you say, and I have to join the yellow and the white to get the full output of the stator so is it to go into the both of them before it comes into the rectifier or do it go in after ...and I would have thought at the red coming out of the rectifier as need to regulate what's coming out DC not the AC, do you think you could do me one of your great little sketch`s of how it go`s please.

 

are there you go Ash

is That any better ....... that was lights on and 2,000 rev`s.

Oh that wire you pointed at I will go look see if I can find out where it go`s.

the red lead is the one from the rectifier to the battery which is being held on by the black probe, and the other black from the Rectifier is to the - side of the battery the starter wire as we said is Not connected as use kickstart only.....

i wish I Know more Ash about Electrics   

oh don`t forget I have the wires from the stator going to the Rectifier so Not going thought the loom.. the black rectifier wire is the yellow from stator which is the white ( lights Extra ) ...and the brown/yellow is the yellow from the stator both connected to rectifier.........

Confusing .com I Know lol 

Hi Ash

Well thanks for that and the Manual I have got one but got a spare Now.... going over to Kawasaki LOL

so here is what I have done this morning with the bike lights on and off Not to sure now as with the lights on the voltage drop a lot but I will let you tell me what you think, it starts off with the lights off and rev at 2,000 rev`s about 13.40 to 13.45 then lights on and drop right away to about 12.7 then go`s down from there to about 12.46 all at 2,000 rev`s don`t know if that is good enough or Not.

Cheers Mo
