Any wiring wizards out there!, Restoring a 81 xt250 bought as a non runner, problems with the wiring etc. I bought a new 6v xt loom, New ecu, 6v coil, switches etc, Now had a look at the stator at the weekend and discovered it's from a sr250, which is obviously 12v, also the reg-rectifier is off a sr250, so don't know, is it best to try and link the stator to the 6v loom or get a new sr 12v loom and start again, is there much differance? any one done this in the past?, any one got a xt250 stator they want to sell?, none on ebay at the moment. Am a little lost at the moment, Any help would be great, Tony.

Thats a lot of changing to 12volt,,,, is it points of CDI, ?

I've never done it, but changing from 6v to 12v is quite common on auld Brit bikes

it's cdi, now i see why it was sold on, to much money in to it, to stop now.

I edited your subject title, It may better attract some help here

rex speedshop does a conversion, I'm sure I've seen the ad in classic bike!

member on here too

Neo ( I think) did a thorough write up of his DT 175 mx 6v - 12v conversion. Worth a look for inspiration

We have two kits, basic and full with all the bulbs etc that you'll need:
