Re: sort of unethical fix

IT TOOK A FEW MINUTES, BUT I FOUND THE REFERENCE FOR USING THE NON VISION R/R UNIT ,, KNEW I HAD IT HERE SOMEWHERE FOUND ON ANOTHER MEMBER'S WEBSITE :: I TRIED THIS, AND IT NOT ONLY WORKS, IT WORKS BETTER THAN THE OEM ::

Charge cures by bernard lajoie::
source a re-wind from "Rick's Stator"(west coast)or Cycletronics(use to be"Willy's")in Alabama(east coast). For reg./rect.replacement,throw the yamaha part in trash,go to salvage yard,use either Honda or Kaw. For Honda use cm-400/450 twin or cx-500/650twin only! Wire in this order,3 yellows to stator(one per leg)red w/white to battery pos.,small black wire to (switched HOT)this is the volt reg.wire. If not hooked up bike will over charge(16-19volts,not a good thing). Last hook green wire to battery ground. Some Honda reg./rect. will have (2)red w/wht@(2)green just splice together(red to red,grn to grn). For Kaw.use late model kz/zx 550,kz/zx750,kz/zx 1000/1100(these are the 2-valve motors,zx=GPZ)or 600r(ninja)4-valve,wire in this order,3 yellows to stator(one per leg)white w/red to battery pos.,brown(smallwire)to(switched HOT). This is reg./rect.wire,black to battery ground(IMPORTANT:you will need the gang plug that plugs into reg./rect.w/2-3in of wire to wire correctly I.E.cut from main harness as nessary,sometimes the salvage guys don't like this). Your bike will now charge@14-14.5v,also ck.battery pos.&ground cables,these are prone to fail.


 My total cost  about 13.00 at the salvage yard, and a six pack for the guy at counter,

Bernie was an abrasive sucker, but he knew his stuff. I think he may have finally sold his Visions , ( he cussed us out because no one lived near enough to Arazona to buy them.)
