Are you sure its wired correctly?
I bought one off ebay for my 84 a year or so ago, and it looked the same as the 
old one but the orientation was reversed. I had to fabricate a makeshift mount 
to seat it securely and reverse the leads. Worked great after that.

It looks to be the green and red wire that goes to the solenoid that's smoking.

Hey gang! I'm having electric problems. The ignition died on my bike. Went to 
work and all lights went out on the dash. 91 750. The batt works. The solenoid 
fuse was burned out. Melted. Got a new solenoid and when attaching the positive 
lead, the solenoid started to smoke. Any ideas?
