Found something new

[Douglas Money]

I didn't realize these bikes had elctrical fuel regulators in them.

YAMAHA XS1100 XS 1100 FUEL REGULATOR METER ELECTRIC NEW(#290044947322)

I guess we learn something new everyday.

Doug, that's the voltage regulator for the fuel GUAGE. The meter uses 7 volts, the regulator reduces the 12-14v down to 7

[Douglas Money]

Ah, thanks. I thought he was wrong or I was seeing things.

I wish I could find one of those.

You can use a solid state VR if you can find the correct input/out voltage. They are about as big as a nickle.

Or you can use an LM317 that you set the output volts with two resistors.

I have two spares, and would let one go, but did you see what $$ they're going for? You can PM me if you're serious.
