unidentified symbol on gs1000g circuit diagram

[DaveWatts]

Hi,

I just got a new wiring harness for my gs1000g I noticed that a couple of wires (W/R) (W/G) that lead from the RHS switch gear to near the solenoid are just cut. I looked at the circuit diagram and there is the word modification below the end of the wires ( I think this refers to the wire below the word as it says charging modification - but not sure which wires it refers to) and above this word are my two wires with a strange set of 2 oblique parallel lines. I searched the entire internet for this symbol but could not find it. Maybe it means the Japanese for terminate the wires, but this seems strange and I notice that on the new harness for the bike these wires have female bullet connectors on them.

Any ideas?

Short answer is the headlamp loop was a bad idea. Wire stator direct to r/r IGNORE all other wires. For long answer search this fourum

Thanks that explains it. BTW I have an old SH32B-12 regulator lying around, do you think that would be ok for the GS1000, or would I be better sticking with the smaller original one?

I would leave the little one in; hopefully it burns up before your stator. The real solution is to get a series r/r; see Gs stator in my signature.

My suggestion would be to post a link to the ONE file that is your diagram in question. I clicke on the link and got a page full of about 70 pdf files. Sorry, but I am not going to take the time to browse through your personal stuff just to find out what you are talking about.

Now that THAT is out of the way, the w/r and w/g wires are the infamous "stator loop" and are not necessary. In the stock harness, the w/g wire left the stator, went into the harness, got to a connector that was either under the tank or in the headlight bucket, then turned around, went back through the harness to the R/R. In earlier years, that 'turnaround' actually went to the headlight switch, but when they lost the headlight switch (in the USA models), they installed the turnaround. The rest of the world still had a headlight switch, so the main harness was not changed. The better way to wire the bike is to run the w/g wire from the stator to the w/r wire that goes to the R/R without the "stator loop" in the circuit.

Which R/R to use? Neither one. Get one from a Polaris ATV, specifically a RAZR 800 from the last few years. There are several on eBay for less than $45, but you have to be sure what you are looking for. There have been several threads recently about this very matter, so a search should find them easily.

I found this type for a Honda-CBR-1000, I think it could be a SH775 type but not too sure

Just get an SH775 and be done with it. If it doesn't say sh775 on it then it's not one. Lots of R/R's look the same.

It's more fun going through the exploration, trying to a nickel but spending a twenty spot.

That is NOT an SH775. Don't even have to see the (lack of) wording on the back fin, the connectors are not correct.

REAL SH775 and SH847 have metal bottoms. if they will not show you the bottom, 99.9% sure youre getting a knock off. The FH012AA and FH020AA are the mosfet shunt versions that look exactly the same, same thing, if the bottom isnt metal then it is probably a knock off. Just buy the SH847, I can't say enough good things about the one I installed on my 82 850.

I did a bit of researching and have ordered a second hand SH775 off ebay, now to see if I can sort out the wiring harness, what to do about the gear indicator, the socket for it doesn't seem to exist on my substitute harness.

Cheers
