Bare bones wiring kz650 was created by 77Davo650
Anyone have a bare bones wiring diagram for something similar to a 1978kz650B diagram? I found a few good ones that have the separate reg/rec and can probably figure it out from there since I have the combined, but if anyone has one already that would be totally awesome.
No turn signals, no gauges, just ignition and brake light and horn and starter.
Rock on.

I think I have one somewhere. It'll take me some time to locate it (I'm not at home right now).
Like you said, it's pretty simple. What about Headlight?

Excellent, just what I needed!
I toyed with the idea of eliminating the starter and just using the kickstart, as well as nixing the lights until later when I get the ignition/charging system wired how I like. It might be bare bones until I decide to put the lights on so I can be street legal, and I can figure it all out from this diagram you so graciously provided.
Thanks again!

Could you tell me if this diagram will work on a '99 KZP. I have been searching for two days and still haven't found a diagram. BTW the bike is being chopped.

99 KZP will probably have electronic ignition and probably a different alternator. I don't have a diagramfor a 99 KZP.

I am really not electrical savvy but I have a 79' 650 that has the seperate Reg and Rec. Does anyone have the above diagram showing those items wired seperately? Should I just modify my bike and use the combined Reg/Rec?

1979 should be the same as 1978.
1977 was the odd-ball year. If you have a seperate reg and rec, you'd have to change the stator, cover, and rotor in order to use a reg/rec from a 78 or later 650.
The 77 alternator is good, but the 77 regulator is what gives the most headaches. you can get a new solid-state reg for a 77 650 at:

I have a simplified diagram for the 77 650, but I'm not at home so it may take me a day or so to find it. I'm sure it's been posted here somewhere if you do a search.
