What's the matter you alky? Hate it when everyone but you is correct?
Sheesh...you aren't even worth bothering with anymore. A pathetic
loser like you is beneath a person whose lines bore chiefs, kings,
emperors, brigands, thieves, smugglers, gods, shamans and monte banks.
Fortunately none sullied our lines be being a drunk or a
politician...some things are beneath even us.

Homosexual prostitution is illegal, even in Cut Bank, Montana.

But you will pimp for your wife. When are you going to post those
explicit pictures of Barb on CL?

Gee loser, you tied one on already? Sheesh it's not even 1600 where
you live and you are already drunk again. As usual you attempt to be
witty...and fail just like everything else in your pathetic
existance.

When you can be knowldegable without looking it up the sky will turn
as brown as the **** you have for brains.
TTFN loser.

Not quite. 'Hates it when he's pointed out to be incorrect' is nearer
the mark. And it happens quite often. It's also exceedingly annoying
to him to issue a challenge ("put up or shut up" kind of thing), and
have it taken up and shown that he was, indeed, talking nonsense.

Sensible people, at this stage, say "my bad", and the world moves on.
Krusty, OTOH, will twist and turn and do *anything* to change the
subject, *anything* rather than admit he's wrong, *anything* to
ridicule the opposition, not realising he's making himself look
ridiculous.

So he's a boozer, then? Colour me unsurprised.

I sit corrected.

My own humble suspicion. Had one working on the roof this fall...

The last time I worked on my 1985 XL600R was about 5 years ago - at that
time it would start with a lot of effort, but wouldn't stay running
reliably. Someone on this forum suggested going through the Clymer or
Haynes manuals' trouble-shooting section, and I could have SWORN I did
and that the last thing to check in the trouble-shooting tree (assuming
good spark, fuel, etc.) was the kill switch.

I just sold it to a co-worker who wants to get it running, and he says
he measured the kill switch as being shorted irrespective of the
position it was in. (so to me that means the kill switch must have been
the culprit - how often do 2 things go wrong at the same time?)

Meanwhile, neither the Clymer or Haynes manuals even *mention* the kill
switch, nor show it on the wiring diagrams. (Did I dream the
kill-switch thing in the trouble-shooting tree?) He finally found a
schematic online that shows the kill switch, and it should be *open* to
run, so he just cut the wires.

When I was trouble-shooting 5 years ago, I had the head done (new valve
seals, new cam, re-seating the valves, new timing chain), replaced the
pulser, CDI unit, and rebuilt the carbs - but danged if the thing still
won't run reliably. The guy I sold it to checked the rectifier and
tells me it's not got continuity as it should (according to manual) -
but that's the *one* part they don't make any more. It does have a
spark, so is the rectifier really necessary? I didn't disassemble the
bottom-end when I did the head/pulser, so the timing should still be
correct.

Can anyone help please? It used to run really sweet and was easy to
start until this problem developed. I see the factory manuals are $50
on ebay for that model year. I may have seen the kill-switch in the
trouble-shooting section of one of those then lost it (???)

Thanks!

You're wasting your time posting to this troll-infested NG.

Take your dirtbike questions to a dirtbike NG.

Hi Patti

This site should be helpful.

http://www.electrosport.com/technica...sis-center.php

Seems like you might be able to find an aftermarket
regulator/rectifier. This part is for the charging circuit
anyway. It shouldn't affect the bike's ability to start
if the battery's already go a full charge.

Not really clear if the guy who bought the bike knows
what he's doing.

On mine, the kill switch makes and breaks a circuit.
Not sure what he means "shorted out". Try to get a wiring
diagram for the bike (might be one in Haynes) and see
where the kill switch fits into the picture.

My suggestion would be to fully charge the battery,
empty the tank, refill with new gas and then try
starting. If it doesn't start, check to see if you have
a spark at the plugs and if so, clean the carbs.
If no spark, is there 12 volts at the coil ?

The electrex site always used to have really good
troubleshooting instructions.

Worry about the rectifier and charging system after
the engine will fire.
