I haven't been on for while but looking through your saga here I would be inclined to suspect the dear old 77 connector that is the DC output of the earlier VR.
They definitely can get a carbon...
[QUOTE].OR the PO prior to your purchase, installed a pre-2008 new or used pump assembly which has different wiring orientation because the pump-to-harness plug is different./QUOTE]
John, If I was...
The fuse box diode is a pre-2008 item that provides isolation between the clutch switch and the neutral switch - this is handled by the ECM in the 2008-2009 so not fitted (I have no idea about the...
John, please excuse the interruption - the power for the fuel pump is indeed switched in the pre-2008 XB's and is shared between the fuel pump and fuel injectors, sensors but in the 2008-2009 models...
3 Bearing spacer (measured from a new 3 bearing wheel kit that hasn't been assembled)
Length - 6.735" - 171.07mm
OD - 1.456" - 36.98mm
ID - 1.221" - 31.03mm
The one area of suspicion for a high current ground short is the starter motor cable going to the battery positive as mentioned in the previous post, therefore this is a point to look into -

Nice work - I'm with Eric O looking at that.
This is a photo of the Uly main diagram from the 2009 Electrical Diagnostic manual - not sure if it there are any major differences to the earlier systems in the main fuse area but these diagrams are...
The XB ignition switch contacts can get grotty and because the ignition switch is essentially two seperate switches ganged together you can get this odd behaviour with intermittent contact on the...
Happy birthday John - all the best.
I dropped the nut from the front ECM bolt which isn't that far behind where you are showing in the photo.
I looked all over the place and eventually found it sitting on the top of the belt under the...
I have sent you a hand drawn simplified circuit and a few steps to follow via PM - hopefully that will help.
[QUOTE] Someone has deleted the front signals by tying the R brown & L Violet wire (see pics) to the return current in the lighting circuit. It was poorly done. I repaired it (assuming it was done...
No - only to the +ve DC side as mentioned above.

I checked the rectifier/regulator internal readings using diode mode as you have done and I get a very similar reading between each AC input and the +ve DC output - 0.455v one way and open in the...
I can't recall what internal resistance measurements of the regulator show (I have done those measurements in the past as I have a faulty regulator here that I started to dissect with a mind to...
I am not clear on all of the actual symptoms here?
Let's take this as three different problems for now (that may end up being incorrect but it sometimes helps to focus the diagnosis.

Received my rebuild kit on Tuesday ( less than a week to here in Australia).
I can now start work on the restoration of a really toasted 12X pump assembly that I have had in the 'too hard' tray for...
This might be worth a quick look - you didn't mention blinkers but this sounds similar to an issue I had with an '06 Uly many moons ago....
Don't know about an XB9 but I would think it is the same as on my Ulys - there is a factory thread insert that is meant to go in the frame and the mounting bolt threads into that.
See item 12 in the...

This has diagrams for the early style of H&B luggage.
Where Buell did have a covering on this short loom they used the expandable type loom covering. This would allow easier fitting over the electrical ends - back in the ancient past when I first did...
If you swapped positive and negative in the VR then you will have the battery positive going directly to ground via the 30A fuse.
