Travis, Hi, Have a question re: swapping an 16" Special rear with a 18" standard rim. Couldn't I take my Special drum rear and re spoke it to an !8" rim. I want a larger diameter wheel than the Special, but you just said that they are essentially the same dia. Explain more please

Pamcopete, Fugedabowdit, You've been nothin' but generous with your advice, professional in your communications AND thank you for your dedication and research we all profited from all these years. A newbie, wannarat

:thumbsup:

wow.... my bad

Yeah I need the alternator to charge and that's where I'll start. I don't mind the stator/rotor it's just that for the cost of a new stator I could buy a PMA charging system. beer/champagne :-)

Thanks for looking guys, ya know how it is when something turns out way better than you thought it would? Hope my mechanic skills are the same. :-)

Downeaster, Thanks for looking at my steel site. I too am going to stay pretty stock. I am also being convinced that I should get electronic as I bought this '82 Heritage with a worn stator, not having to maintain brushes and such would be nice too. Wonder though, is a 130 (watt?) or 200...

Cheftay, Cool cool. I've a '82 Heritage and I a newbie. It's encouraging to see you jump in with both feet on your rebuild. I'm a little chicken $%#* to replace my old charging system myself!! I'll do it, follow your lead :-) This is a GREAT site !!

Funny MTcycle, the correct grammar for your sentence is "Where're" not "Where's" the grammar police when you need them? Sucks when you open your pie hole and end up looking dumber than the guy you're trying to put down huh? Just say'n' :-) Besides everybody knew what he was meaning so why...

Doing my own oil too.

Thanks, I am Carbon, Like to show my work where I can. Helps finance the bike restore. I'm a newbie and am in the process of a pamco and a pmi. Well, "in the process" means I haven't bought them yet but I've done all the tests that say my stock rotor/stator is done... 2 Ohms on the ring test...
