    Pulsar coil pickup?

    This sounds like a noob question but what does the pulsar coil pickup have anything to do with the charging system or only control spark/ignition?.. I still have to do the R1 R/R upgrade yet..I replaced the stator and R/R from Rick's Motorsports still only charging at 12.7V-13.2V @ 4000rpm plus...

    Where to find Igniton Coil

    Hi, I suspect right back ignition coil does not work properly after running engine for a while. This spark plug is black. Carburetors are cleaned and syncronized. The original coils are quite expensive. So does anyone know, if there is an alternative cheaper coil available that meets the...

    No spark from one coil

    Hey there! Just picked up an '88 Vmax that was inop. No back history, got it cheap from an auction for a project. Anyway, put a new battery in and am trying to get it running.

    Pick up coil issues

    Greetings all. I'm new to the V-Max land but have a decent history with other bikes. Just got a. '85 VMX12, and am having a bit of an issue. The bike took 24 hours of Marvels Mystery Oil to free up the pistons, no big deal. Turns over well but looks like I am missing fire on the #2 (front...

    1992 pick up coil

    My pick up coil tests bad when warm. Has anyone used one from regulatorrectifier.com ($129.99) or anywhere else that is cheaper than OEM ($347) and has had good long term results?

    FS: 4 used coils from 98 Vmax

    Coil removal OMG!

    The rears were easy, the front?? Wow. So, has anyone tackled the fronts? It appears the best way to get to them is to remove the radiator and the coolant cap thingy and the plastic cover. Removing the air box does nothing. I want to install the COPS, but would rather remove the redundant...

    Burnt coil wires

    Hello men! I'm new to the forum and bought my Vmax in November. I only managed to put 300 miles on it before I took it apart to do some Winter restoration. It's a 2004 with 5,900 miles on it. It ran great after I replaced some bad gas. After getting it stripped down about half way, I noticed...

    Rear Coil Bracket

    I tossed mine during the move, but I want to mount an aux fuse block to clean some stuff up, get the starter solenoid right, and get the wires under the seat organized. Let me know if you've got one (preferably with the rubber thing for the starter solenoid). Thanks, guys.

    Has anyone used one of these- also is it a misprint or is there a reason he did not include '85 model? http://www.ebay.com/itm/221331354348?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

    Coil problem?

    Looking for some insight on a recent problem. Yesterday I had cylinder 1 issues. I hear some misfire and can feel lack of performance and when I feel the side of cylinders #1 feels cooler then the rest. Going to check my primary and secondary coil numbers to see if coils good, and if it is any...

    Front Coil Access - Help

    I wanted to change the spark plug wires and caps on my 1994 and while the back as easy, the front are a pain. I'm attempting to remove or at lease slide the electronics tray enough to access the coils but I can only pull it out so far. Any tips or hints would be helpful. :bang head: Doug

    P/U coil testing '86 model

    It appears the original Yamaha service manual is wrong about using the orange wire as the common wire for testing the two p/u coil models '85 - '89 (as mentioned by Maleko in a post many moons ago). The black wire is the common. I'm always reluctant to say the manual is wrong but they also...
