According to the below B1 diagram this bike has a "field coil" charging system. That being the case the brown is ignition live and the green is the control wire that should go to the reg/rec. Previous comment relates to "permanent magnet" charging systems

What or who provided the new reg/rec combo unit? How many wires does it have. As Wookie indicated the stock system on a 750 B1 is an excited field system and not a permenet magnet system. I am not sure where in the world you are located or where the bike was intended to be sold stock. So I have attached both wiring diagrams for a US and European version.
