Been testing everything trying to diagnose my non-charging 1976 Honda CB750F/cafe racer. Not only did you help me realize I had the ohms setting wrong but, suggesting injecting 12v into the white wire is genius. Literally did that 5 min ago and my volts came to life revving into the 14v's range. Thank you for this video and your enthusiasm is awesome!!
That's funny I'm still the owner of Interest CB750 and I'm still here in Virginia and yes we do research how these products are made and then we put them on the Market
Thanks Adam , your tech tip really helped me ...now that I could make my system manually charge ...would you recommend , a solid state , rectifier / regulator ....
Is the exciter coil separate from all the other coils on the stator? What does it do? Does the rotor have fixed magnets or electro magnets? Where does the current for the electro magnets come from, if it has them?
Good video, thanks for the information. I have a question: Can i use this charging system in a 1981 CB750 DOHC?. Im tired of changing reg-recs. Thanks, g.-
what are we TEN years old don't need the pink gloves and hat to keep my attention. Your info is good stuff minus the sesame street, bob the builder get up. Other then that keep up the good work. :)
I have a 1981 Honda cb650 that has no power at all turn key on but no lights no horn nothing all fuses good what should I check or test and yes new battery and fires other bike
cycleadam It doesn't even have a voltage regulator in my manual either and the engine you have on your footage looks like an older model than mine. Mine is 1982 and you're looks like it's from the 70's. Is that correct?
Hey man great Video. I have a 77 honda CB750K, Its my first bike and I just got it out of the shop and it ran great with a new battery for a few days but now it is dead. I didnt leave it on, and the battery will not hold a charge. I have had it plugged into a trickle charger but its not doing anything. how can I know what the problem is if the bike wont run?
Hi Adam, Loved your video. I have a 78 CB 550K. Before I start ordering parts I need to see if you can help me first. I was putting my battery back in after painting the holder. Anyway some kind of a way the post touched the cables on the wrong side because I was trying to install the way were I could see the level lines. I didn't realize it until I seen smoke coming from my rectifier. I had the side cover off because of changing fuse box because previous owner had problems. After seeing what happened I pulled battery out and made sure it went in right with out touching post at all. Now here is the problem, when I connect the battery had to turn around for cables to fit. The rectifier gets super hot and starts smoking at wires. Do you think I need the rectifier and regulator or more? I did the test with unplugging the stator wire and seeing if it is grounded and its not. I hope you can help me. This sucks that it happened to me. I know everyone is laughing but shit happens to everyone sooner or later. Thanks, Chaz
I sure will.. thanks. Do You Recommend Any company to order from or even brand? Thanks so much. I'm back Into bikes after many years being away from them too.

thanks,, its not hard once you understand how the system works and what part does what
Also Stephen, if you haven't figured this out yet, I think that the newer (80s etc) models have a voltage regulator & rectifier in one.
this is what every teacher should be like. awesome
thanks,, i could have made the video a bit clearer
but you get the idea
This dude is great .the perfect teacher . How can you not get it after this ?
This guy is the best teacher I've ever had.
Great Video!!! yet again .... never ever boring, full of info. Thanks Adam :)
Thanks stevo v2
Trimakasih saya dari Indonesia
damn that bike sounds nice
dude you rock, very informative and entertaining thank you for the info

Hahaha. This dude is great!
i liked this video should do more tech stuff.

find starter solinoid ,,open front,,check metal band fuse,,main fuse part 98200-53000 FUSE
What year of CB750 is that in the video footage? As I don't recall my 1982 CB750 having a voltage regulator.
cycleadam It doesn't even have a voltage regulator in my manual either and the engine you have on your footage looks like an older model than mine. Mine is 1982 and you're looks like it's from the 70's. Is that correct?
Probably a '79
Adam, stopped by for a quote for my my Honda cb750 rims to get relaced with new ss spokes. I stopped there but you were way too busy.
this guy is a riot! Yay!

Thank you so much.. will let you know how everything goes..
Steve'O of the Bikes! lololoololol
I bought the crap before hand! oh well, better late than never. thanks!
I learned nothing from this.
then you should buy a scooter
