hmm. i have floor boards for the passenger, Thought they were stock
Curt

the idea of lifting you're foot of the board and on to the heel support iam sure was going with the premise that these bikes are for highway cruising and not spending a lot of time braking, Which makes it very comfortable for cruising, but is a pain city driving, Were the mods a product of Markam, w...

should be in bar , 1 bar =14.5 psi
that what is on mine
Curt

You will not be dissapointed with the purchase, i have a 91 which i love, also have a 2003 VTX 1300, which i had before the goldwing, My poor VTX sits in the garage, i never ride it since i got the goldwing, maybe a new owner in its future. still love the VTX but it is just not the same as a goldwin...

Well, Replaced the voltage regulator and still not producing voltage, Is there a way to check the voltage regulator and the rectifier, i did all the stator and Armature checks Etc and all checks out, only thing left is the rectifier, or i got a defective regulator, Regulator was kind of a pain in th...

with my issue checked all the antenna connections and even plugged in another cheap antenna of ebay ,but still the same thing, wonder if it is a colder solder joint or something in the radio, i have been putting of pulling the radio because it is a pain in the A
Curt

thanks for confirming Bellboy40
Appreciate it

a year ago i installed a Lactrical which ran for a few months and it died, i returned it and was sent a DB electrical, the Lactrical alternators are hard to find now for some reason, DB seems the common one now , and the price is right, i have a friend that has Compu fires but seems to replace them ...

bellboy40 , so according to the elec print, i think i have it right by putting bat voltage to both of the terminals where the plug goes, acting like a bat voltage sense, and large lug back to bat
Correct ??

Does anyone have any info on the wiring for the alternator
thanks Curt

cyclemax is a good resource for us guys holding on to history
Curt

ok here is the bearing numbers for the Oem Hitachi LR40 front NSK 60/22DU Front seal is NSK AE1133G Back is NTN 6000LU if anyone needs them before i spin it up do both wires on the plug in get battery power, according to book it says white wire gets bat voltage and black gets voltage when key is on,...

Any one know what bearings go in these alternators before i put the voltage regulator in it ???

Die grinder with a socket adapter works , they spin 20000 rpm's but i throttled the air back to get about 1500 rpm's

Could you use a drill to spin it, you may net get the full voltage out of it, But you could tell if it is working, wonder what RPM it spins at when on the bike ??

Curt

Well , scrap bin it is i guess

Does this mean it is made in China ???

Hmm very interesting
Curt

I believe mine is an original vintage 91, Is it worth $125 u.s plus $25 u.s shipping when i can buy a DB 90 amp for like $175 Canadian ????
will have to think about that
Curt

I replaced the alternator on my 1500 last summer and have old 30A sitting on my bench, Question are they worth rebuilding or dumspter it ??.
Kinda hate to throw it out but, Is it worth the trouble to repair, I did all the necessary checks on it and turn out the voltage regulator is bad
thanks Curt

Low fuel light is controlled by a thermister in the tank, as the fuel level drops and as the thermister heats up the resistance decreases causing the light on the dash to illuminate
Curt

Purolator makes some of the best filters on the market, stay away from Fram, Crappy filter but good marketing
curt

Any pics of the home made linkage, Not that i'am cheap but the $160.00 bracket is a little much, i realize the design etc, but there is $5.00 worth of material in it, and i dont enjoy making other people rich
and i'am cheap
Curt

If you dont have schrader valves, getting the spring compressed and installing the cap is not as easy as it sounds, i ended up removing the forks to building a compressor to reinstall the nut, The nuts are Aluminum and strip easy
Curt
i wrote a post a few months ago on this adventure

Would be interested to see if it works, sounds like i had the same issue, everything checks out, guessing the regulator, still have old alternator, hate to spend a bunch of money and not have it work and not worth spending $150 on rebuild when you can get a 90 amp for less.
Curt

how much was the regulator ??
