Cheers mate. Studied 5 yrs electronic engineering. I now fix domestic appliances self employed. A damn well engineered loom that is. Hats off to your skills!

Many thanks to Alan's electrics (Big Al) for supplying me with the alternator sub loom. Even threw in the 3 male connectors and sleeves to replace the melted ones for free!

Thanks Julie. Could have purchased them from bikebitz for the UK full set. So opted for the harder American import option

Turns out needed to pull the cover anyway.

Is there a gasket for the cover? Or just seal it on

And a locking bit for the sprocket?

Sprocket cover removal.
Do I have to be a jedi and use the force to extract this?

Honda parts seem to be more readily available than the yams. Will look into loom. Thanks HG

Preliminary testing  from the 3 yellow wires from the stator shows no reading from one to any others. However wiggle the wire where it goes into the engine and a reading briefly shows.
Field coil OK at 7 ohms.

The cheap biketek gauges have arrived. What values would I expect to see at idle?
