when i bought my 650, the dude threw in a bag of goodies (old light lens, extra cables, etc....) One of the things he included was this part. I don't know what it is and don't see anything on my book that resembles it. Does anyone know what this is. Has a 7 pin male connector on it.

Oh great! I don't have enough of them already. Do they come with screws?

What year is the recifier from, I need on for my 81. LMK

pretty sure it is from a '75. I only say pretty sure because it was gifted a bag of extras and some of the stuff has other dates on it. '75 would be a good guess though.

It's not a 75. Probably not a 74 or 76 either.

Heck, before you know it you'll be easing down the road with the wind in your face daydreaming about your next project.
You've been bitten dude, and there is no known vaccine.

it's crazy how addictive it is. Bought a new battery that had a dead cell and needed to be returned. Between the time I took it out of the bike to the time I put the new one in....I swear I was in the fetal position at least once jonesing cuz I wanted to fire it up and couldn't. I got it bad man.

I've got one I'm riding and one I'm building from the ground up. Can't wait to finish the builder so I can start on another one. Half the fun is finding them. I stumbled across one about a month ago parked in a tee-pee in this guys back yard, but I got stupid when I pulled in his driveway on mine, now he's thinking twice about selling it. Next time I'll ride up on a moped.
