stator question

[abnorm999]

i just got a new stator from oldbikebarn.com for my 1982 GS850GL(Z) the origional stator had 3 wires..one yellow, one white with green tracer, and one white with blue tracer. however the one from oldbikebarn has 3 solid black wires and no papers to give you any information about what is what. can anyone help me out befor i accidently set by bike on fire or blow up another expensive part. thanks

According to wiring diagram for 650...

One each connects to:

- White/Green (to motor)
- Yellow (to Reg/Rect)
- White/Brown (to Reg/Rect).

The stator under the left side cover correct?
if so one black to each color (yellow, white/green, white/blue)

Hi Mr. abnorm999,

The three output wires from the stator connect to the three input wires on the regulator/rectifier. It doesn't matter which goes where. Pretend they're all yellow, like it says in the Stator Papers.

I have some guides on my website that might help you. Feel free to take a look.


Thank you for your indulgence,
