    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Wiring the Upgrade R/R GS1150 Question

King Speed

Forum Newbie
I have read the posts here and everywhere about replacing/upgrading the R/R on my GS1150. I have the Shindengen SH541-12 12V to install.
I need to know proper connection for the 5 wires..(2)R/W, (2) Gr, (1) Bk from the replacement R/R, besides the 3 (yellow) stator wires.
The old R/R has (3) Yellow stator wires, (1) Red, (1) Black..

I have confused myself with the (seemingly) extra wires on the new R/R. Thanks in advance for any clarification.

 
Just cut off any extras.

Or wire like this: (I was kidding before)
The two green wires are for ground. I would wire one to the frame and the other to the battery.
The two R/W are the 12V output. Either go back into the harness (adequate solution) or wire them straight to the battery with a 20Amp in-line fuse (best solution).
The black is called a sense wire. It needs to go to something that gets 12V when the key is on (also called a switched wire). The taillight wire is popular.
