    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.

Too Low resistance on r/r

which manual is that ,my clymer doesn't have that

It's Suzuki original service manual GSX1100/GS1150 1984 - 86. (the thick version)

A little warning, I DON'T KNOW if the GS 550 has the same parts as the GS 1150. :!:

Did you have any use of the info, or did I confuse things even more?
 
not confusing at all, i just need to basically rewire the wiring harness from scratch and i havent had time.
 
too low resistance on r/r

too low resistance on r/r

KZ
would you please email me a smaller copy of the regulator schematic and instructions? I can only print the left side of those pages.
Thanks,

While we're back on the subject of the R/R, when a system is overcharging would it be possible to add a resistor to the line from the R/R to the battery to bring the rate back to spec?

Billy,

In my opinion it's not a good solution to add a resistor, because the output voltage changes according to the engine revs and load.

That means if you add a resistor, it only works for a small "rpm-window" and a certain load.

One possibility could be to add a big Zener-diod and just shut the "over"-power to ground, but it is a little bit "old-fashion" way of regulating....
 
Karl,
Thanks for the response. It was just something I've been wondering about.
