I need to be assured of your intellect before I continue to post here....
I also need a resistor pack for my 1981 XS1100 Yamaha.
I have read that if you seen one resistor pack you seen them all, but these motorcycle packs are sealed in a case that is near on impervious.. I don't have one or I would take it apart ... so...
The internet has returned that a 1.5ohm 10w resistor is the spec.
I have in my hand... a 1952 Ford customline resistor that measures out steady at 1.6ohms.
Now this connects to the thumb kill switch and when you toss the switch... the engine dies right...?
wrong... it just continues to run. So this 1 tenth of an (&%$#%*) isn't working...? not what I am looking for.
