Timing problems on the 450 Bomber
mo goldie:
Hi
Well Roy first my fluke don`t have 20amp its got a 10 amp any good ?
Yes also right about putting a meter across just the battery as it did not move well went down.
the wiring fault if you look back was that the white/Black needed the + 12volt as I thought it was an earth, till as you pointed out that Honda done some strange things on wire colors lol.
if i need to get another alternator are they hard to get or is there someone who rewinds them as might need one ?
just asking asking as the one on there don't look that good to start with as the windings look to be flapping around well some of them do anyway,
Bryanj:
Windings are fairly robust, charging problem are usually bad wire or wron connections

Bomber ones often fooked Bryan .. particularly when damaged when the starter clutch fails (which must have happened on Mo's bike) .. plus they are cloth wound not epoxy coated, The later 5-speed fits OK and is epoxy dipped like later 1970's Hondas.

Thanks Ash, only ever did the 500twin, in that case measure the ac output of the wingings when running
