Hi, just a footnote if anyone’s interested... An engine’s alternator or stator produces AC current. Kick start bikes & mopeds used 6v AC for years. The ignition, lights horn etc would work using AC. But you can’t store AC electricity... If you can’t store it you can’t have an electric starter. So you need to convert AC to DC by using a rectifier. But AC current increases & decreases with engine RPM. So to smooth this out and make a nice constant voltage you need a regulator. Once you have a nice even voltage in DC form you can use it to charge a battery. Then boom, you have energy stored to hit the starter button & fire the engine up next time you need it.! Plus lights using DC don’t get brighter or dimmer with engine speed... which is handy.

Using this video & part 2 to diagnose problems with my Xv750 Bobber & I'm also finally starting my barebones wiring as well. Nicely done Pep. Groeten, Al. 😉👍
This was wonderful!! Working on a Yamaha Vision and it is basically the smaller twin to the Virago. This was helpful beyond compare as well as clear purposeful knowledge.
Thanks very much sir for ur explanations,but how to connect also is very very important I do appreciate your work sir,May the almighty continue to strengthen you sir
I'm a mechanic , electrical stuff is gibberish to me ....but this was quite useful for me to diagnose why my bike had no spark , dead coil ... Thanks mate ,helped me out 😉😎
well the bike runs now first time in 5 years.turns out the last owner had ignition coil #2 going to both cylinders causing alot of backfiring/ misfiring..with cleaning the carbs and following your directions it runs like new no misifires or anything. thanks again!
BIGGZ46 Well, there isn't really a good way to test it static. So, if you've tested all the components, and they were all good, and you hooked up everything as it should but the bike doesn't fire up or works, then probably your TCI is not good or not working... Ok?
Hoi Pep, Really good video which should help a lot of people & a great coincidence for me as I have to check out my stator & regulator/rectifier on my xv750 bobber, after my battery drained when I was out at the weekend!! Groeten uit Ierland, Al. 😉👍
i tried to use a battery to test my rely and the wires got super hot i used 18 gauge black and red wire and did it the same way you did and it just fizzed for a little but on the bike i can hear a click what am i doing wrong
i have a gn400, kickstart, do i need the battery/regulator setup? or can i just use the cdi and coils, i have spark brand new carb compression and air bike wont start, ive ruled out everything exept for wiring.
Excellent! Great job Chief! I get so many questions about wiring too, now I can just send them your video so that I won't have to explain it so many times! haha!
Thank you sooo mutch ! This is the best thing ever, im joining your patron as soon as im not so Post-vecation broke, quick question you changed the OHM setting on the meter, where did you start and what did you change it to ?
Ooof... I can't remember anymore. I think the only thing is to change one dot (from eg. 100 to 10). Just see which reading you get and figure out which setting you need and makes the most sense according to the reading. Same goes for volts. You can read: 1.23 Volts and on the other setting it will be 12.3 Volts which makes more sense.
Ik ben ook met XV750 project nu en dankzij jouw video ben ik er achter gekomen dat mijn accu niet word opgeladen door de dynamo. Sinds ik de dynamo heb vervangen wilt de motor niet meer aanslaan, de startmotor geeft alleen een ‘klik’ geluid bij het starten. Zowel accu, rectifier en dynamo zijn nieuw. Zou het kunnen dat de startmotor niet meer goed is?
Can you describe what values you set the reading for each part? Sorry for such a specific question it’s my first time ever using a volt meter, or if it says on the manual I can just look on there! Thanks! Working on an Sr250 by the way.

Hi, I own an XJ400 (1983) and I am facing some problems. When the engine speed rpm is high it stalls (bogs). In the beginning looked like fuel supply but is not. Carbs are restored, cleaned and synchronized. I double check it. I believe it is an electrical issue. I tested the coils, rectifier & sparks and are okay. It looks like something is “confusing” the engine electrically. Any ideas of what might be?
No unfortunately. Impossible to tell. Could be a shortcircuit somewhere. Could could try to lift up the harnass here and there during the high revs. Maybe it helps and you could tell where it's coming from. If an electrical issue is the cause... Have you checked the condition of your sparkplug caps and the wires in there? You could cut a small end of the wires and screw them back on. Often the wire in there is a bit dodgy.
Hello great video I have a question to ask, I'm in the middle of trying to rewire my Yamaha R6R it was torn up by rodent's but anyway does this simplicity apply to my bake it's a 2007 it is also fuel injected with a electric fuel pump and has O2 sensor also has air flow meter so I'm really confused about the wiring and want to simplify it like yours thank you and again great videos
Basically yes and no. The basics should be the same. The TCI would be your boardcomputer and from there there will be plugs going to your injection. But you really need your wiring diagram. And I am afraid you will find that you can't loose a lot of wires since the more modern bikes like yours are allready wired up pretty descent. But the logic is still the same.
Hi! Great channel! I am just wondering, is this map and build similar for all Japanese motorbikes, except the wire colors and some connections? I am wiring a Honda GB250 (1989) and there are some differences (Less wires come from my R/R and 4 wires coming from my ignition key for example) but I am hoping this build is mostly similar.
For sure. The whole scheme is basically the same. The units work the same. Best is to have your original wiring diagram at hand so you can always figure out which wire was going where. And you can compare it. More wires to your ignition key has probably got to do something with parking lights. And try to make a same scheme as I made. Delete all the central wires and draw new ones one by one like I did. If you do that first, you are allready teaching yourself what you will be doing in practice.
@@chiefpepdesign HA. Unfortunately the HONDA GB250 wiring diagram is like some ancient lost scroll. Complately unable to find it online, so I am going off a mixture of different Honda diagrams (CBR/CBX and ones like yours) in order to piece what I have together.
I have a 81 xv750 I rewired it and everything works good only problem is there is significantly less voltage after the starter solenoid I bought a new one and still the same issue. 🙃 Any ideas?
@@chiefpepdesign I can hear the starter motor try to go. The ground is proven solid and is all brand new. I re-used the factory wires for everything else though.
@@timhentges3567 try to connect all the main components directly so outside of the harnas to see if that helps. Sounds like a bad connection or even starting short circuit somewhere. Follow the diagram exactly as I explain in one of the first wiring video's with the main components serie.

Good going! YUP an electrical diagram for motorcycles, can at first look quite daunting, BUT if you, YES YOU consider power goes from bat+ thru 1 or more switches, to a load like a horn, headlamp then back to -- or ground known as the chassis you can take a pencil and follow the path for eadch circuit. If ur working with a Harley D maint. manual grab that pair of half-glasses that is laying around you will need them to make out the letters for wire color codes, ask me how I know. Starter solenoid primary and secondary? NOPE Primary and secondary refer to the eindings in an ignition coil, magneto or regular tranformer as for the electric utility company, your old train set, BUT no primary winding, just a winding whose magnetic field operates a pair of heavy contacts. This is 1 type of starter solenoid, the other type is larger, does the same thing AND mechanically pushes or pulls the starter pinion gear out to mesh with the ring gear either on flywheel or cluutch bundle. If a Stator has three wires it is a 3 phase stator like nthe stator in an automobile alternator. 2 wires is a sinple phase job.
hey there great video's 👍 you never show how to wire the push start and relay could you post video explaining please that would be awesome other than that very informative video's been helping me alot
