Thanks. It's, just had a look on their website and it state they don't work with lithium batteries so il have to look at a different brand.

CB500/550 / Preferred Regulator/rectifier combo« on: December 18, 2016, 04:45:43 PM »
I'm looking for a Regulator/rectifier combo for my build to maximise space under the seat.
Is there a preferred model or supplier of unit that is better than others (DS, ricks, electrex,etc) Also I'm not sure if it makes any difference but I am using a lithium battery. Thanks Mike 19

I've started on the wiring, i have positioned the starter solenoid and had some power cables made up. Unfortunately thats as far as i have got due to working on my car project and the wife wanting me to do DIY This is a picture i took a few weeks back when i was having a tidy up in the garage. This was the first time it had touched the floor with its wheels on, and the first time i had sat on it. Mike 20

Thank you Bryan.
I must admit I forgot to order new seals up to this point. Is it possible to re-use them or is it wise to replace them? Thanks Mike. 25

A question, I have a new gasket for the clutch cover, do I need to put and hylomar on this gasket or should it be fitted dry?
Thanks Mike 28

I started rebuilding the forks today. Got the new seals installed and everything In place but have A question.
What torque should the 8mm Allen head oil lock bolt at the bottom of the fork be tightened to? And should thread lock be used on it? I did take a look in the factory manual but the bolt descriptions weren't clear to me. Thanks Mike |
