Nice find. I hope it helps sik fix the trouble.

 

I would check the voltage I agree if voltage above 14.7v may cause bulb to burn out
Could handle possibly up to 15.1v.
I do however question where you are getting your bulbs from.
If motorcycle shop make sure they are not 6v bulbs as I have seen this.
We also had an issue with one of my buddies 110s burnt out the haedlight bulb.
Ordered new bulb which burned out about 3 minutes.
What we noticed was the origional bulb wattage was like 35w the new bulb was 25w.
We were at the dunes so we rode over to vender row and one of the venders had a 50w bulb.
Worked great and bright.
Just my input hope it helps.

there will be no regulator because there is no battery to charge ... i believe the main parts are gonna be the ignition and lighting coils and the condenser and points in the stator... do you have a manual? (silly question but you wouldn't believe how many ppl dont ) start with checking the out put of the stator wile idling... and the wires for breaks an crossovers live previously stated

 

no i do not have a manual. what should the output of the stator be?

 

I have been through the wires they all look good to me. A few pepole have suggested the regulator even the shop i took my blaster to. I looked them up on ebay I cant find anything that looks like this on the trike. Does anybody know where i can find it? It is a pull start trike and the shop said it will still have one

 

hello
i have a 200s 1981,,,a 200e bigred 1984..(but in partlist its a 83)..and a 250sx 1985..i got servicemanual to all..

so chek your frame number and go to this site Honda Motorcycle Parts, Kawasaki, Suzuki and Yamaha Motorcycle Parts - ATV, Classic Bike, Dirt Bike Parts
site has win tabele and frame.nr look up
if you have hi/low it is a 200e but it has battery..had some trouble to find what bike,,frame is labeled 1984,,but there was no 200e in 1984..i cheked framenr
and yes its made in 1983,,but importer here had it labeled as a 1984,,a overstander from year before..making it hold its price...Grrr... that importer mix.. 200es with reverse came in 1984

zoom my picture and you see month 7/1983 and 1984 label

 

Ok ill check this out thanks. I did stop by a honda dealership they said it dont have a regulator and my best bet is the stator but they want $200 for it. Im still gunna give this a look Thanks agian

 

dude spend the $19 for a manual and save your self a LOT of guess work

 

I went to dennis kirk and ordered the lighting coil for $20 ill get it in a couple days this should work

 

Well???? Did it work????

I just got a 82' Honda ATC 185s and I have the same problem. I took the light out and hooked it up to a multi meter. I have spikes up to 50 volts when switching from "off" to "Low" and "High" on the light switch.

Everything I researched suggested this problem may be a bad voltage regulator. But everyone I spoke to can't seam to find one either. It was then suggested to me that I replaced the CDI Box. Does the CDI box act as a voltage regulator to the lights?

Very interested in the fix for this problem.


Thanks,
