82' GS850G project bike

Can't comment on the other stuff, but yes, you can remove the tach drive gear and plug the hole without any issues. (Except for not having a tachometer afterward.)

Is there a place to buy one or do I have to make one?

I'm Back

So, I have absolutely nothing to post, but the fact that I'm back. I had to take an unintentional hiatus do to work and family.

Hopefully during the Christmas break I will be able to work on cleaning out the garage and finish tearing out the engine.

Wish me luck!

How's this project going?

So, I went out to the cave to do some organizing and try and make some sense of a few electrical "mods" done by some previous owners.

And what do I find, but a replaced R/R. Great, right? Well... see for yourself...



So, I thought at first there was an inline fuse with this "mod", but then realized half way through editing these photos that it was more likely an inline resistor.








Any input would be helpful, not exactly sure what should be done. I figure I can eventually figure it out, but I also figured it might be easier on here. Also, as mentioned, I am going to be re-wiring this mess and will be tidying this up either way.

That RR looks like one I modified and sold to the previous owner. I shipped hundreds out all over the world. It's interesting to see how they are eventually wired into the bike.
