xs650 Chopper - Bobber wiring your charging system. DO NOT waste money buying a "chopper wiring" diagram online and more importantly, use parts you probably have laying around. I've done the struggling and managed the frustration for you. Here is my video on how to wire a charging system to your yamaha xs 650 twin motor. It's very simple and I hope it will come in handy.

Best of luck to you!

  • So I have an 81 XS Special that I would like to delete the starter from.. you have any words of wisdom on this?? Good vids by the way.!!

  • thanks brian, epic.

  • fantastic video im super happy someone out there made this and i currently am wiring a 72 with the same reg/rec as you are doing, the nylon screws was a great help. one question though. how did you wire up your ignition??? thats the part im having A LOT of trouble with, it seems every diagram i find is for every other type of ignition other than points, could i get any help from you with this? thanks in advanced.

  • Yo man, I've watched your wiring vid several times. Well done my friend. I have a 75 xs that i've bobbed. I need to wire it, but i'm scared. Yeah, i said it...i'm scared dammit. I'm a pretty smart dude, but wiring has never been my thing. Any chance you can walk me through it if i sent you a vid of my bike in it's current state. Thanks in advance.

    PS. you are right...you can be a normal dude with crappy tools and still build a bike.....just ride.

  • thanks man im picking up ( i hope) a 76 xs and you are a big help , i will probably be throwing questions at you soon :}

  • My congratulations on your video. Edited very well. You are a clear speaker and have quite a talent for the video shown. I actually used your tip on the nylon screws to adapt on XS1100 regulator/rectifier to work on an XS650. There are a few more wires, but after viewing your video, works like a charm. Thanks again.
