To remove the ignition switch on a 2013 Yamaha Royal Star, you can follow these general steps: 1. Disconnect the Battery: Begin by disconnecting the negative terminal of the battery to ensure safety and prevent accidental electrical issues. 2. Remove the Ignition Switch Cover: Locate the ignition switch on the motorcycle's handlebars. On some models, there may be a plastic cover or panel that needs to be removed to access the switch. Use a screwdriver or appropriate tool to remove any screws or clips holding the cover in place. 3. Disconnect Wiring: Once you have access to the ignition switch, you'll find electrical connectors or wires attached to it. Carefully disconnect these connectors by gently pulling them apart or by releasing any locking mechanisms. 4. Remove Mounting Screws/Bolts: The ignition switch is typically secured to the handlebars or the surrounding housing with mounting screws or bolts. Use the appropriate tool (screwdriver or wrench) to remove these screws or bolts. 5. Remove the Ignition Switch: Once the mounting screws/bolts are removed, you can now detach the ignition switch from the handlebars or housing. Gently pull or wiggle the switch to free it from its position. 6. Install the Replacement Ignition Switch: If you are replacing the ignition switch with a new one, follow the reverse process. Align the new switch with the mounting holes and secure it with the screws or bolts. Reconnect the electrical connectors or wires to the appropriate terminals. 7. Reassemble and Reconnect the Battery: Put back the ignition switch cover or panel if you removed one in the first step. Double-check that all connections are secure. Finally, reconnect the negative terminal of the battery. Please note that the exact steps and specific requirements may vary depending on the model and configuration of your Yamaha Royal Star. It's always a good idea to consult the motorcycle's service manual for detailed instructions or seek assistance from a professional motorcycle technician if you are unsure about any step of the process.

you should be able to get a 130 on that but keep an eye on the gap between the tyre and the swing arm

it sounds like the recitfier/ regulator needs replaced

I apologize, but I couldn't find specific information regarding a "Yamaha News Mate V50" or "Yamaha News Mate V50 bike maginto coil pack" in my training data. It's possible that the model name or terminology might be different, or it could be a less common or regional variant. In general, the ignition system of motorcycles, including coil packs, helps generate the spark required to ignite the fuel-air mixture in the combustion chamber. If you are experiencing issues with the coil pack on your Yamaha News Mate V50 or any other motorcycle, here are a few steps you can take: 1. Visual inspection: Inspect the coil pack and its wiring for any signs of damage, such as cracks, corrosion, loose connections, or frayed wires. Ensure that all connections are secure. 2. Testing the coil pack: Use a multimeter to test the primary and secondary resistance of the coil pack. Consult the manufacturer's specifications or a service manual for the acceptable resistance values. If the readings are outside the recommended range, the coil pack may be faulty and should be replaced. 3. Professional assistance: If you are uncertain about how to proceed or if the issue persists after visual inspection and testing, it's advisable to consult a professional motorcycle mechanic or authorized Yamaha service center. They will have the necessary expertise and tools to diagnose the specific problem with your Yamaha News Mate V50 and provide appropriate solutions. Additionally, if you have more detailed or specific information about the issue you are facing with the coil pack, please provide additional details, and I'll do my best to assist you further.

left hand clutch lever to clutch is failing. gear box dry. gear selector damaged. buy it like this or out of the blue it happens now. if clutch is bad one can jiggle any bike in to any gear. ,key off. jiggle means move bike forward an back a tiny bit. and it shifts./ check and test the clutch first. the clutch must work first or all key on tests can be super dangerous. google how to test any motorcycle clutch. end to end. test. hand lever to clutch actual.

so posted motorcycle to cars,moved you to Yamahammer. no year I guessed at the move, so none known and matters. 2008 to 10 says wiki. top cause all machines with engines (fuel) and not driven every day the fuel goes bad. and clogged filters and injector. 1here the battery bad,or charging system weak if goes weak spark fails, EFI must have 13 to 15vdc at all times running, if not EFI fails, (electronics for spark and fuel) most motorcycle sit parked for endless months.or years. for sure in the rust belt, nobody drives on ICE same with garden tools sat idle and fuel is now junk. the word is MISFIRING< due the 3 classic causes auto cycle engines for 100years bad fuel is first due to not driven daily!!! this is physics based and ASE rules of testing not guessing. using tools. 1: bad compression on the 1 cylinder? over 150psi a must. 2: bad spark on this cylinder, . spark plug bad. or coil or spark trigger devices. 3: bad fueling or bad fuel. under or overfueled or leaking injectors Is a single cylinder engine, V1 is 2008 to 2010 seen in India are you in India. we are USA>? Yamaha YZF-R15 v1. as seen here. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yamaha_YZF-R15 why leave off makers name and YZF, do you want lies.? I say get the Motorcycle serviced in a real shop ,they have to tools and the skills to find the cause.

Sounds like it. You can test the switch for continuity with a multimeter. https://www.manualslib.com/manual/1197371/Yamaha-Xvs650.html?page=47#manual https://www.google.com/search?q=2004+yamaha+650+v+star+ignition+switch+wiring+diagram https://www.google.com/search?q=2004+yamaha+650+v+star+ignition+switch+bad ..

Start with the basics. Fresh new fuel and a fully charged battery. Make sure it is in neutral and if it has a fuel tap that it is in the open position. If it has a kick start you can 'prime' the engine. With the ignition OFF and the fuel supply ON kick the engine over 3 or 4 times. Then turn the ignition ON and try starting the engine. Only crank the engine with the electric start for short 3 second bursts.

no it will not

There are several possible causes for your bike stuttering and then dying while riding, despite having replaced the spark plugs, coil, and wires. It's worth doing further diagnosis to identify the root cause. Here are some possible reasons why your bike won't start:

1. Fuel delivery: Check to see if your fuel pump is working properly and ensure that your fuel lines and tank are clean and free of debris. If your bike has a carburetor, check to make sure that it's functioning correctly.
2. Electrical system: Check that your battery is charged and in good condition. Also, ensure that the electrical connections are clean and tight. Make sure that the charging system is working correctly, as a bad stator or rectifier can cause similar symptoms.
3. Ignition system: Make sure that the ignition system is working properly. Check the timing and make sure that the ignition switch, kill switch, and key switch are all functioning correctly.
4. Compression: Make sure that your engine has good compression. A compression test can help identify if this is the issue.
5. Other components: Other components, such as the cap and rotor, valve timing, fuel injectors, and camshaft position sensor, may also cause these symptoms.

It may be helpful to consult a mechanic or dealership if you are unable to diagnose the issue. They may be able to provide you with more specific guidance on how to fix the problem.
