As i am working my way through my carb woes, i spotted that a phase wire had fell off the rectifier again. there is not enough to solder too.
is there a combined (more modern) unit that would be suitable i was told cb 900 ones will work.
i came across this
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220733237047&fromMakeTrack=true&ssPageName=VIP:watchlink:top:en
would it be suitable?
any help much appreciated.
Flc.

I don't know about the combined unit but I've got a rectifier that was listed on ebay for DIY wind turbines. I can't guarantee that it will work though as I never got around to testing it, from memory I think it's the same as item 250728271145 but it cost less.

This is a bit of a marathon, but you might pick up some tips as to what would work from here:

Don't know for sure but dont think so, you need a combined unit from a bike that had a "fed" rotor (usualy via brushes) like the 750/900 DOHC or the CB 650. I do have the diagram to convert somewhere.

It MIGHT be possible to use some of the other ones that "Shunt" excess charge to earth, usually via a zener, BUT that means the field coil will be subject to full power all the time which it was never designed to be so failure MIGHT occur

Im bidding on a 750 dohc one at the moment. i will post my results if i win it.
im starting to enjoy this bike now she runs properly.
