That’s got to be a problem with the ignition points. I would whip the points cover off and spin the engine over so you can see what’s happening in there. Fingers crossed, they just need a clean
Instead of firing the parts cannon (which is expensive, I have done that many times unfortunately) learn voltage drop testing so you can locate where the problem is. Then you fix or replace that one part. I recommend a book how to diagnose and repair motorcycle electrical systems by tracy martin. It is worth it's weight in gold.
"these are all oxidated (oxidised) so I'ma just use the super thread impact stripper to get 'em out".. Problem is when you try to tighten them up again! Use some penetrating fluid, like WD40 or similar (other penetrating fluids are available!) and try gently turning them with a socket before you destroy all the threads! And, those coil terminals should be attached to the wires by flat bayonet connectiors not by a soldered connection, they wouldn't have come from Yamaha like that!

Great video, my 650 chopper stopped working last year this gave me the motivation to get it started back up again.
Episode 4!
Glad we’re all learning with you! Sorry it didn’t work out this time around! Keep your head up! :)
I'm glad you have help troubleshooting your bike. It's awesome that you're learning. I respect that.
check the points and condenser ,or electronic ignition
Hello, i have the same bike but a 74mod. My bike stopped after work one day two years ago and i started to rebuild it now.
oh cool! good luck with the rebuild, you'll have to let me know how it goes

There's no points here, (CDI Ignition) but if there were it would probably be easier to fix, and cheaper!...
What year XS is that? I had no idea there were clutch and kickstand interlocks. I’m headed out to check those on our bike. Thank you.
1982! 🌹 What year is yours?

xs 650 yamaha mmmmmm! Make sure you have a ground from handlebars to frame They are notorius for this

Dead starter motor, they can spin but be dead and pulling voltage so hard to diagnose 🤷🏼
if that's the case, maybe she can try to kick start it to test that theory. In other words, check for spark while kicking it over.
I hope theyve tried kicking it 😂
Or its not a clutch safety cut out (no clutch in, no start)
Lovin the boston accent regardless
Is there gas in it ?
LOL yes 🙈 imagine if it was that simple
