Title: Side Panel Decals
Post by: philward on March 16, 2021, 10:14:25 PM
Were these decals fitted to the 500? Can't remember whether they were fitted to mine back in the day

Those decals were only on early K0, not even all of them and came in black or gold.
The only place i found part numbers were in my japanese model parts book scanned by Adh and in Alladins cave

May be in the shed this week sometime, if you've ever seen my shed you'd know it's like going on an expedition to the Amazon, the roofs collapsed, the floors gone, I think some rats have recently moved in (they must love me for some reason). If I spot a starter motor in there do you want me to dig it out, just in case?

Yes please Ken - I don't think its the motor as I've done continuity test on 750k2 and it reads exactly the same (and that works fine). I have made a new earth lead up, recleaned paint from earth point (seemed ok) and going to check motor lead through crankcase incase its trapped & ground via a short to the case on live side of cable or as I think it should get the ground from (ground side of motor that gets shunted to other side of motor load when live applied via solenoid - have messaged Ash to confirm this is correct)
I remember taking care to put it through the crankcase grommet but will re-check.
I'll message you if I need a motor - thanks
