D'oh! Your thread was right below mine when I posted it, I should have opened my eyes and done some reading first, sorry about asking a redundant...
Quick choke question here. Ever since I bought my 1000R I haven't been able to use the choke. The bike will not fire up at all if I choke it....
I would certainly be interested, but I have NO idea what a reasonable price would be for a complete system. I imagine it might well be more than...
Before I finalized the connections I tried all possible combinations of connections with the 3 yellow stator wires. With each combination I...
Looks awesome! Glad to see another one saved! I can't wait to get mine back to flying her factory colors!! -Paul
It always amazes me the things people know! Great info here!! -Paul
Neat looking bike, but I rather doubt the sellers claim of it being a "rare factory color scheme" Honda : Interceptor:eBay Motors (item...
Thanks Ghost! And I agree that there is always a reason for a component failure, but as you said, the question is whether it is worth...
UPDATE: As it turns out this problem seems to have been caused by a dying/dead regulator/rectifier. The next time I rode the bike I ended up...
Hahaha no worries man! I think most of the stuff I didn't actually end up bidding on. I was just thinking about it and then bidding went higher...
Got her all put back together today. Everything seems to be OK, but I will keep a close eye on the charging system for a while! Thanks again...
Definitely keep up the good work man! You're an inspiration to me and my desire to bring mine back to her original "glory" Even if you are buying...
It could be, I just bought a spare stator and rotor, so I've got them if I need them. I was wondering if the bad/loose connection that I found...
I wired up my new '08 GSX-R 750 R/R tonight and the ole 1000R is charging on her own again! 13.8-14 volts at idle on up to 15-15.1 volts at high...
It probably would have been a good idea Gunnar, but at the time I was "doing things by the book" and the FSM does not have a procedure for...
Thank you sir, for the insight! I've got a R/R off an '08 GSXR 750 on the way. It was $40 shipped so it's not too much to loose. I have checked...
Hmmm...Now I'm second guessing myself. Do I go with a r/r made for my bike for upwards of $100 or should I grab one from an '08 GSXR off eBay for...
One other quick question before I buy my new regulator. Has anybody had good/bad experiences with the different brands of aftermarket unit that...
Thanks! That pretty much re-affirms what my thoughts on the situation were. Revving the bike never gets the voltage even as high as 13 volts,...
Well, after having put 700-800 miles on my '85 VF1000R I've had my first breakdown! The charging system isn't working on the bike and going by...
