I knew I had two bags and thought there was a set in each unfortunately there's only one in each bag. They are available from 4into1 in the States but the postage is the problem. If there are other parts you need you could combine them to make it affordable.

Sorry... Bit of a blank from me too Mo as the NOS needles I have are from another Honda model.
Probably got two decent used and not bent needles you can have though once I dig them out.

Hi Roy & Ash
Oh yes bad news then :( oh well ......... worth a look ha..... I have took the carbs back off now so if you got a couple of Needles Ash or anything else would be better than the ones with clips do you think ?
and the link you sent for the regulator it looks the same as the one`s used on my Kawasaki KH400 and I think I have two of them somewhere but have Not got a clue as to how to put one of them in the wiring system..... Not my thing Electrics really....
still can`t find out the whereabouts of that pinkish looking wire go`s on the wiring loom thats comes out were the battery is to go to the old rectifier ?
AshimotoK0:
The ORIGINAL pink wiring is the output from the lighting coils of the alternator that goes to the lighting/ignition switch and when the headlight are switched on, this connects the pink wire to the yellow wire so that all of the coils are fed into the rectifier to boost the night time charging.It's basically like the circuit in the diagram earlier. Trace the pink wire on the original loom back to the pink wire on the ignition switch and you should have continuity.With the ignition switch disconnected, you should have continuity between the pink wire on the the switch and the yellow wire when the switch is in the lighting position.

Hi Ash
So if I do this and can I join the yellow and pink together at where it comes out of the loom in near the rectifier and put the both into the rectifier .......... if so do I have to take the wires out of the Ign switch ?
Oh the other thing you said about the magnetism well the rotor it has a newer one on from a K5 and a spanner sticks to it like Glue and hard to pull off so that should be ok ....as far as i Know anyway.

No, you wouldn't have to do anything at the ignition switch. If you have decent magnetism in the rotor though you should get enough charge without joining the wires. Might be worth a quick try though to see if you get decent charge with the yellow connected to pink (original loom colours)
