    i cant believe how yamaha routed EVERYTHING into this stupid hunk of plastic... I now have to make my own headlight hook up and luckily i'm replacing most of my switches, or this would be a major pain.. but how did you guys get spark back?

    Have I missed something, Schooter?
    What bike are you working on now?
    What happened to the XL 2fiddy?

    xl two fiddy is at a friends house, i have to get her cleaned up and ready to sell... unfortunately...


    but I slept on it- and i'm hoping that the coils must have to touch the frame.. because cturik did a how-to on removiong the atari and installing another light and he didn't mention anything about losing spark...

    and oh- the whole reason the coils had to be moved was to fit the cb750 tank..

    OK, I gotta claim ID10T here...

    Other than being the best gaming console ever, what is this "ATARI" you folks speak of?

    Skippy,

    Its the speed/tach box that comes on the 750 Seca and 750 Maxim
    Looks like a huge square piece of plastic, AKA the Atari. As soon as we meet up for a ride I will show ya
