Toss the battery on your XS650!

I have had many requests from readers for info on how to run a magneto on an XS650...
Well in case you missed it, this is a fantastic post on Chopcult on how to do it the right way.

Enjoy:

Been a while guys... sorry, but I've been REALLY busy and have been pretty burnt out on bloggin lately.
It's just one of those things that happens.
Been a bummer couple of months. Had to sell all my projects, and 99% of my parts stash, in order to pay bills and get a new CPU. (Yep ANOTHER hard drive crash. This time I may have lost massive amounts of photos.)
So, been kinda anti-social ... however... a trip over to the fantastic "Kemosabe and the Lodge" blog this morning has done wonders for my mood.
Love this blog, and Josh Kurpius is one of the greatest photographers/motojournalists around.
Swiped these pics from him... much respect and all credit to Mr. Kurpius.
Thanks for cheering me up man.
