Title: 1981 XR200r Regulator
Post by: Curtis on June 16, 2017, 03:02:44 pm

I know these are a 6v AC light system, but do they run a regulator? Seems like a silly question but I cant find one on the bike, I cant find one on a wire diagram, or a parts diagram...??
I know the later ones do
Ideas???.. :o

The measured output from the stator is maxing out at 9v so I should be right, I might have answered my own question.. ::)

I think they have a big capacitor instead of a battery?? 10,000 mfarad or so?

No capacitor,... took for a trail ride on the weekend lights worked all day, guess they just run a low output from the lighting coil...no need for a reg.  8)
