[KLR125]

[Poulsen8r]

Sorry man i gotta go to uni, i'll be back in about 3 hours lol... Hopefully it works or someone else can help you out

 

[KLR125]

doesnt work im sooo cut

 

[Poulsen8r]

I'd say just start from the very beggining of the tutorial and rewire the lot... all you need is some wire a soldering iron and a variety of terminals... But by the look of those pics... it might not only be the wiring thats stuffing you.

looks like a lifan serial, and you only have one bundle of wires coming from the case? and it looks like the bundle is goin up towards teh sprocket, looks like you are missing something really important =], hard to tell on the pic though

is this the same process with a GPX 150 engine?

Big props to poulsen8r for this tutorial!!! Helped me getting my bike wired (first time for me), and saved me getting someone else to do it!

If You Guys like this tutorial I can do another for electric start bikes and i was thinking of doing a tutorial on how to add/remove your starter motor (and Battery).
Please Post Any Questions and Feedback on My Tutorial

Hey man Great tut. once again, would be great if if you get the chance to do add in the diagrams for the battery and Elec. start. Iv decided to redo the quad and am going to use 10-15amp wire.. just to be sure its got decent flow.. is this to restrictive? regarding the plugs, I have soucred the brass pins, but am going to reuse the plug I have(its not the greatest condition so am going to use hot glue or araldyte to seal it so the connectors dont wriggle.. should be fairly safe right!? i'll take pics when I do it and add them in..

yo great tut it really helped me get my head around the wiring.. when i bought my bike the wires had been pulled out by some kid that thought he knew how to fix it and apparently got bored half way but i have stripped the wires back to basics and put it all toghether like in your diagrams but i still cant get spark through the plug.. i have swapped out the cdi for a new one but it didnt help.. i have been hesitant to solder the wires until i got a spark in case i had an issue and i have learned after loads of reading that the yellow and white wires are pointless so that is a load off my mind but still have a couple questions, i have 5 pastel coloured wires (light pink, purple etc) coming in a second loom from a black circle type thing which most bikes seem to have (its next to the stator) now i dont know what this is or what its supposed to be connected to but it has a 5 pin plug the same as the male plug that normally joins to the cdi.. does it have anything to do with the ignition circuit? also i think i may have a ground issue because i have connected all my ground wires to a crimp on ring connector and put it under a nut on the coil bolt but i have a feeling that its not adequate.. perhaps the paint on the chassis is preventing ground but not sure i guessed it would still get good ground through the coil bolt itself but perhaps not.. any ideas?

cheers boys, FF

Might be of some help. Might also be worth sanding the paint off where you've put the bolt and ground wirer.

thankyou sir xD

will give that a go tomorrow and see if it makes any difference

 

[freedumb fighter]

ahh gear indicator is the black thingo that i couldnt identify.. what would that be connected to if my bike wasnt fitted with only the most basic parts? haha

 

[freedumb fighter]

alright.. today after i put up my tv i found time to play with the bike.. i sanded the ground terminal and played around with it a bit.. when i was kicking it over it wasnt grounding anywhere it shouldnt have been but still no spark, magnets have plenty of magnetism.. i dont have access to a multimeter so that makes like tough.. any thoughts? got some pics for you too.. if you can see that i have made a mistake PPLLEEASSEE let me know

 

[freedumb fighter]

all the greens go to my earth circuit under a nut on the under side of the coil bolt

 

[thumpstar king]

my wires from my cdi are not the same colour as dis pic does any one have any other digram

 

[Poulsen8r]

What colour are they? Most wiring diagrams will be the same as the ones I made. You can do it without the colour. Any members have a pic of the stator withour the cover on? Then you could match your wires up with theres. I don't have access to a bike atm. Sorry.

IIRC - there will be a trigger wire on the outside of the stator, It's connected to the pickup. and the black and red wire will come from underneath the flywheel.

 

[thumpstar king]

HEY MATE there is a pink one that goes with the black and red from the motor den a red wire blue&red,green&black,green&red and a light bronie redish colour

 

[Poulsen8r]

Hopefully this will help you... the green and black should go to earth. Can you match up the two wires in this pic?

 

[thumpstar king]

yeah the black one goes to my pink wire on my cdi and not sure were the blue one goes and all the rest from the cdi go to

 

[Poulsen8r]

Can you post up a pick of the cdi plug and wiring harness?
