    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I have a SH530-12. I believe it is off a late model 600 gsxr. It has three yellow wires - white w. red stripe - black and a brown.Can I use this on a 1980 GS 550? If possible how do I wire it up? Hoping somebody knows.:confused:
 
It will work! Not sure on wiring on GSXR The three yellow would of course go to the three stator wires

Yes, you can use it. As mentioned, the three yellow wires connect to the stator wires. White/red stripe connects to the hot lead going to the battery. Black connects to ground, and may be connected directly to the negative battery terminal. Brown is the voltage sense wire, and should be connected to a circuit which is hot only when the ignition is turned on. The taillight circuit is commonly used for the brown wire connection.
 
That's what I thought but since most of my troubles lately have been the result of my thinking, I wanted some expert advice. I do greatly appreciate the help. I hope this thing will take the load, it is much smaller than the original.:-D Thank yeh, thank yeh, thank yeh.\\:D/
 
Considering late model bikes have a lot more electrical equipment (high tech electronic ignition, more sensors, etc.) it should carry the load with no problems.
