    My 82 Katana is running with an issue maybe

    Yes battery box is mounted in old rubber grommets with metal sleeves. So I leave those two wires disconnected?

    My 82 Katana is running with an issue maybe

    Ok I freed up time this afternoon to look at this RR loop thing. 4 wires come from RR to stator 3 wires and one of the stator wires the green one goes to bike harness. So I know the red goes to red from RR to bike harness. Does the white with red tracer wire from RR now plug directly into the...

    My 82 Katana is running with an issue maybe

    All good info and I will touch base on all of that with R/R ground connection and stator to R/R connections later on in the week. I still have it all apart on the bike lift. Everything on this bike is oem original in other words nothing has been altered in any way to date. Everything is of...

    My 82 Katana is running with an issue maybe

    The stator 3 wires go to the R/R as is now. From there the R/R has two other wires coming out of it one is red that plugs into the bikes harness and the other is a ground that is grounded to battery box back.

    My 82 Katana is running with an issue maybe

    Oh I believe you but I am not sure I have the know how to make this any better or to make it even work. I am capable of many things when working on mechanical stuff with a motorcycle but wiring and plug in change outs and rerouting wiring is not one of my gifts. I have read about all this until...

    My 82 Katana is running with an issue maybe

    Ok it was making more than 60 on the meter I just thought it needed to make at least 60 from the previous post. I saw 75 up to 80 on all 3 legs at only 4k rpms. Money is not a issue. I'm already a grand into this thing bringing it back to life and still have new tires/tubes and the freshen up...

    My 82 Katana is running with an issue maybe

    Ok it’s putting out 60 on all leads disconnected from R/R at 4K rpm’s. Less than 5 on each lead connected to a ground.

    Will do that, makes more sense that way.

    My 82 Katana is running with an issue maybe

    Ok o tested running not sure if I had meter set right but at idle on ac it was 23-25 and revved up around 30. Wiring is getting warm to touch at stator connectors to R/R. Not sure if that normal or not. At 5k rpm’s it’s putting out 13.54 with meter on battery on volts. Little higher than...

    My 82 Katana is running with an issue maybe

    Ok I’ve managed to test the stator not running and getting inconsistent quick numbers flash up on all 3 leads. The numbers don’t stay on the meter long. Very confusing. I have not tested it running yet. I followed one of Ricks YouTube videos on the R/R diode test and it was consistent on all...

    My 82 Katana is running with an issue maybe

    Understanding anything electrical I might as well be reading Chinese. I know how to read a multi meter to get voltage and that’s about it. My dad was the electrician in my family but he passed away sept 1st of this year. I never picked up any of his knowledge on it. Sounds like all parts are...

    My 82 Katana is running with an issue maybe

    Charging system seems weak. It has a brand new well charged up AGM battery made by Yuasa sold by interstate batteries. It’s only putting out 12.62 at about 2k rpm’s, tach needle is broken off and the remainder piece is not moving much so I could be off on these rpm’s. At 5k it does get to 13 on...

    Heading to Key West

    Me and 3 other guys rode down in 2019 during thanksgiving week from MS. Went down the west coast of FL and back up the east coast on way home. Fun trip, drank to much so it’s a blur at times. Shutdown Duval St two nights but I couldn’t do the 3rd night, to worn out. I was the oldest of the bunch...
