Thanks for the schematic Kurt. Looks like I'm gong to have to get a new battery first. The last battery I got for the 550 was from AutoZone. Is there any battery that's better than another? Isn't that your specialty Paul? I know this has been discussed before. I've been out of the loop for awhile. - Bernie

I've never used one, but the Rick's Motorsport rectifier is supposed to be an upgrade. -Kurt On Thu, Apr 24, 2014 at 1:49 AM, Paul <[email protected]> wrote: Way to go Bernie!!!! You did good buddy!!

I wasn't planning on buying a motorcycle today, or even this year, but couldn't pass this up. A neighbor parked this 83' 650 in his front yard this morning asking $600. I got it for $450. All original, 19Kmiles. It had been in storage over the winter with Sta-bil. Tank is clean & it started right up. Looks like one of the front calipers is sticking. Needs fork seals. Going to need a front tire & battery. (Nothing I haven't done before) The only issue it has is the charging system. I never paid attention to this topic on the many threads over the years being a member because I never had the problem. For now I'll be busy doing lots of cleaning & inspecting. Is there a 650 manual PDF file? I'll have to order another Clymer. Where would be a good place to start regarding charging? - Bernie -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Nighthawk Motorcycle Lovers!" group.
