I understand your frustrations. Do you have a wiring diagram?. What is the bike. Looking at my 650 diagram should be constant 12v on brown wire....
Brushes are good but are communicator rings clean along with all connections. Should be a connector with 3 white wires coming out of alternator....
Glad you asked. The turbo has a intake side and a exhaust side. Inside each housing is a fan or turbine. As the exhaust gas leaves engine it...
I'm not familiar with turbo on this bike but I have 15+ yrs experience with heavy truck turbo diesels. The gasket circled seals exhaust gasses...

How does this story end? Have you tried a different charger, bought a new battery? o_O I'd try a different charger first. Best of luck.
Please consider the following:p In order for lead acid cell to produce a voltage, it must first receive a charge voltage from a charger. Lead acid...
Stumplifter, Think of it like this: The Battery is the tank on a air compressor, it stores energy, the compressor pump is the alternator. the...
Did this bike start/idle perfectly before upgrade? I've had personal experience with carb issues. Listen to K-moe he helped me quite a bit....
Took off carburetors and disassembled carbs 1-4 for a look at pilot passages. Used a small piece of wire to fish around, clean air and fuel jet...
Good thinking chacal.
I put color tune plug in tonight to see what I had. So determined that carbs 1 and 4 would never give me a (rich) yellow flame(at idle). Throttle...
Ok so we are saying it's running lean based on fact that pilot mix is 4+ turns out right? I left 205#,50# air jets in top under diaphragm. Also...
I have considered putting air box in and seeing if their is a different. I've already replaced throttle shaft seals and sprayed intake boots and...
pods for intake. Exhaust is 2to1. I'd guess if I put box back in I could turn it back a few. But she looks so sexy with pods:D the carb rebuild...
Sorry let me correct. The video is just me horsing around with it 2.5 turns. The exhaust is on now and it's 4.5-5 turns. If not throttle is...

SHE runs, got alot to do yet but got her to the point to start. Pretty blue flame out exhaust side of head.didnt run her more than a minute but...
Interesting thought, YICS open or blocked won't increase CFM of air being drown in by the piston. I believe this passage is before (upstream) of...
I see, I removed mine from the tank to see it first hand. Now I understand. Working on rebuilding my carbs now. Hope to have them back together...
Looks just like that, Ok so if tank is low it will only flow from reserve. The tank is pretty much empty so I will need to fill it and check it...
can someone describe proper operation of fuel petcock. It has res at 9 o'clock and works off vacuum. On at 6 o'clock and it doesn't flow fuel at...
Nice thanks for info. I wish I could have rode her as a 650 to compare.
Update: I went and picked up used engine over the weekend. Turns out to be a 700(696cc). Never the less it was in my price range and had better...
I sent a email to xj4ever. To help me get correct parts to do a total overhaul on carbs.

Update, I'm picking up yics750 this weekend end. If I rebuild my 650 carbs with this kit they should run my 750 right? Fit Hitachi HSC32 Carbs...
Wonderful thank you k-moe.
I wanted to keep her stock but guys I found alot more 750 yics than 650. They are a cheaper price too. I know there is probably a thread on what I...
Thanks for info guys, I'm going to stick with what Yamaha gave her and perhaps *upgrade her later. Thanks to hogfiddles for turning me onto a...

I guess I just don't know were to look.:( Can you point me in that direction. Tried eBay.Starting to feel depressed I got a $900 piece of scrap at...
Ok you've convinced me that I need a YICS. Are these rare engines I'm not finding my parts on eBay.
Ok I need some more guidance. After removing and disassembling my engine I found cylinder is worn out/ pitted. Several bolts broken in head and...
Thanks fellas, I will look at the pages you sited. I kinda suspected the ignition wouldn't be as strong as modern ignition. Can I pull the head...
