Maybe the m-unit blue the newer version can do that. I have the older original m-unit wired to my stock solenoid. Solenoid draws its main current directly off battery not from the m-unit itself.
650 fan no problem just keep going with it is best tip I can give you if you get half done and walk away too long it's hard to get your head back into the big picture. Any questions you know where to find me.
Arnoldo Avilez That loom is a NAPA auto parts special buy. It comes of the roll and pay by the foot. Think it was less than $5 and I bought 1/2 inch and some 3/4 inch. Easy to work with 👍
@@nickmurdock507 no problem I didn't get mine done all by myself. Lots of great people out there with good info. That's part of the journey talking to people. Motorcycling community rocks! All about having fun.
Last question for you- For other systems on the bike... if you can remember what spedo adapter did you use? Did you also just eliminate the stock on/off switch and neutral light?
@@nickmurdock507 I ran the stock speedo. I bought my ignition key set up from Dimecity I think it was $20. The neutral indicator is on the the tach which I opted to not use so I don't have a neutral indicator. Easy to wire though if you want the lil screw on top of back side of case is the lead for neutral indicator. One thing I wish I had added was a kill switch on handle bar. My clutch drags a lil so getting into neutral while running is almost impossible so I have to grab clutch with my right hand and shut bike off with my left hand because I put key under my left cheek. Kinda a pia but life goes on.
If your going the m unit route you will be scrapping the stock harness. I got my wiring kit from Revival cycles. It had almost everything needed in the kit. I mean this is a custom installation so I needed a few odds and ends. But their kit has diagrams of a few senerio and wires are color coded for the application they are needed for. So that helped out a lot and to buy all the different gauges of wires in colors needed would have cost way more $$$. So the kits makes a nice clean looking sensible job in the end.
Hey man, a month ago i bought the XSCharg PMA and High Output Ignition Kit with a capacitor for my XS650, last week i thoght i connected every thing good but i cant make it start. How did you connect the ignition system? I would thak you a lot with youre response, Regards Santiago
Kerwin Jones yep pma pamco starter solenoid the fuse box and m unit control switches. Rival Cycles has a great wire kit for m unit and I got the loom material from NAPA auto parts. It's fairly easy but I enjoy wiring stuff.

So where does your ignition wires like from your plugs / ignition coils go to ?
how did you connect the brown wire from the rectifier? did you connect it straight to the stator or hooked up to an key switch somewhere?
I understood that the M Unit could work as a starter relay up to 30amps. Made to be able to start old HD and BMW
Maybe the m-unit blue the newer version can do that. I have the older original m-unit wired to my stock solenoid. Solenoid draws its main current directly off battery not from the m-unit itself.
How do I integrate the munit with my stock ignition system? Cant find alot of info on that GS550e 1983
Thanks for the video. Going to start wiring mine soon.

Awesome video!
Can you tell me where did you get the wiring loom and what size it is?

Thank you for this video! Is the new PMA required to do this? Do you think this same setup would work with an antigravity battery?
No you can run the stock charging system. I recommend the PMA kit but it is an investment.
You are helping a lot of people here! thanks for the quick reply!

Did you need the original witing harness while using the m unit? Or did the m unit replace the whole harness?

Santiago BRC are you running a Moto gadget m unit?
Is this all you needs to get the bike to running? I have an m unit, looking to get a pma and pamco.
Kerwin Jones yep pma pamco starter solenoid the fuse box and m unit control switches. Rival Cycles has a great wire kit for m unit and I got the loom material from NAPA auto parts. It's fairly easy but I enjoy wiring stuff.
