Hey guys I have an 81 tci that possibly took a dump. Replaced coil everything checks out though pickup, battery fully charged etc. Anyhow was looking at pamco ignitions and wasn't sure if for some reason they need the PMA swap also to work? Stock charging system still works flawlessly so really...

is it normal for the rectifier to put drain or load on the battery when not running is something faulty? ive got the battery tender plus and im thinking about taking it back and getting the jr. ive been on a couple other sites and others are also saying they were having the same problem with...

i thought the same thing. but after the gereen light stayed on i put the battery back on the bike and it did the same thing (green flashing)

hey all. i have had the tender on my 81 for a few days now. after about 12 hours the red light was on also with the green light flashing indicating 80% or more charged. but two days later and the green is still flashing. all lighting circuits are ran after a switched key so they dont work unless...

Hi guys rejetting the 81 for open pipes and pods. Was on mikes xs looking at needles and seen that the needles also have a corresponding needle jet. Can I just get the needles and use the stock needle jets? Carb is stock jetting. Thanks. I've only jetted 2 and 4 stroke MX bikes so the needle...

Great thanks a lot for the quick response.

Hi guys starting to run lighting circuits on my 81 build. This is the wiring that I used, it shows the fuse after brake switch for the tail light but can I put the fuse before the brake switch and still be protected. It would just save me some headache. I'm using an auto fuse block instead of...

So the red wire from the battery feeds the key, and the red from the rec feeds power back to the battery. That was my next question where do I put the front brake switch in that circuit. Do I just run something desperate to the brake light or can I tap in to the same circuit the rear switch is...

So the key switch has to be on that branch and not directly in line with the reg? Sorry for all the dumb questions guys just trying to understand how this all works.

So the kill.switch is not needed for everything to operate correctly, right?

Is there a reason that the key switch is not directly in line with the red wire feeding the reg. rec. Its actually on a T that branches before the reg. So the reg rec always has juice? What's the point of this?

This is the harness I'm wanting to run

Hey guys new to the forum. Starting rewire in a couple days. 81 tci engine. Rewireing from sccratch, my question is all bobber harness diagrams I read have a main generic keyed switch but then there is a seperate kill switch prior to the coil. Is this necessary or strictly for safety. I...
