Hi, removed flywheel to replace points, noticed a small what looks like broken piece of thin metal on the right hand side of the top coil. See attached photos. Is this a problem? Had a good spark and engine ran before strip down.
Inclined to replace complete stator unit but can’t find exact match. Any suggestions,
Dave

Initially I would check if the coil has continuity, also does it leak to earth,
I am assuming it shouldn't,
Do you have a multi meter?
Good news is that the bike is a runner,
Does it also charge the battery??
If it does work, leave it alone,
Use the bike, but you could plan ahead with trying to source spares or other ignition/generator system,
Like Electrix world, etc
Gist is, if it works, good,

Thank you, my electrical knowledge is not great but I have a multimeter and will check out. I don’t know if the battery charges, I’ve only just started working on the bike. It’s a long term project, ie getting it running properly, checking out all the electrical functions then deciding how far to go with the cosmetics,
Dave.
