Re: "Parts Bike" a '77 rebuild thread
I see from the video that you have gone with a twin carb setup. Can you show some more pics?
Goldwings don't accelerate, they gain inertia.
1978 GL1000 - almost stock - needs a head replaced, parts are ready to install!
1979 GL1000 - Winter project/parts bike - custom "Busted"
1983 GL1100 Standard- raised from the dead and back to organ donor status
And the newest acquisition, 1979 XS 650F to be a sidecar tug.

Re: "Parts Bike" a '77 rebuild thread
12v Power comes from the circuit on the new control unit which i drew in purple. There's no kill switch wires and no wht/grn as in the dyna instructions.
Do i connect the red wire (from dyna s) to the purple wire (12v from motogadget) and the other 2 contacts on the coil all together? I don't understand the path of the electricity.

Re: "Parts Bike" a '77 rebuild thread
Looks pretty good to me. Just some thoughts..... Are you going to have any safety interlocks for starting? Clutch/ Neutral light? Also is the key going to kill power out to the coils through the M Unit? If I read this right Solenoid Terminal 1 will be hot all the time and according to your little note 5 and 6 will as well. Is there any issue with having the Reg /Rec getting power from Term 6, 24/7/365 or should that be switched? I believe in the OEM Setup the rectifier has a hot lead all the time but the regulator is switched. I do not know if the Ricks Reg/Rec is setup up for that?

Re: "Parts Bike" a '77 rebuild thread
that's a good question about the constant power going to the reg/rec i had not thought about that but it looks correct from the diagram provided by revival cycles
https://revivalcycles.com/blogs/technic ... ring-guide
the diagram i posted is just what is needed to start the engine. will add the lights later as i go along.

Re: "Parts Bike" a '77 rebuild thread
Progress!!! I can not hear the noise you are referring to but one of the funky things I have found in the past is over tensioning of the timing belts. Make sure that you do not "assist" the tension set by the springs.

Could get serious quickly with a water pump ceramic seal not being immersed in coolant while the engine is running
