I recently replaced the engine on my bike and swapped the rotor that was on it for my old one. I hooked up the battery and started messing around with some of the electrical controls when I noticed a burning smell. It turned out it was coming from the rotor. Is it possible that these things can...

I am looking for a used (running) engine for my '81 XS650. I would prefer one with an electronic igniton system so as not to have to mess around with breaker points. Thank you.

I have the same problem with the choke not holding on an '81. I recently did some cleaning and probably lost a spring or something. Is there somewhere that I can buy just those small springs and ball bearings or do i have to buy a plunger or something else in order to get them?
