Hello Evryone,
It has been a long time since I visited the forum. Between moving, starting a new business, and adding another kiddo to the family. The bike has taken a back seat. It's been about a year since I last worked on it. Anyways.....fall of 2013 I tore the motor down to replace some gaskets and piston rings. Put it back together and did some basic wiring. And this is where it sat until now.
The motor is a 1977. It previously had points, but I just bought and installed the basic pamco high output ignition/Pam kit from Mike's XS. I am running the separate rectifier and regulator setup, have a 2 into 1 coil and going to run a capacitor as I have removed the battery and it is kicker only.
Now I have done some digging on the forum and online and I cannot seem to find a wiring diagram that is exactly the same as what I have going on. A point in the right direction on where I could find one or any help is greatly appreciated. With summer already here and to have not taken a ride since fall 2013....I am desperate need for a fix.
I've wired the new ignition/charging parts up as I think they should be but the bike will not start. Could someone help with a diagram?? All I am really looking for is how to wire the PMA, pamco ignition, separate rectifier and regulator, with a capacitor. Oh and of course kicker only. no starter, but I do have a kill switch...aka key.
THANKS!
