Ring to ring.... forget the terminal...
Ring to ring = OL stillRing to ring.... forget the terminal...
I believe that's the one @grizld1 recommends...But there was another place that did rewinding of old bike rotors - it sticks in my mind that it was in Georgia (Atlanta?) and apparently, they are really good.
Does that ring a bell with anyone?
Sounds very familiar. I do remember with a name like "Race Tech" I expected quality as Race Tech suspension components have a great history and reputation.I just checked my database of suppliers and there is place called Racetech Electric
I just bought a rewound rotor for my 1980 Special from 650 Central for $175 after I send my old one back.
I was having the same problem, getting OL from the rotor until I held the multimeter points to the rings and it climbed to about 1.2 ohms.
I'm having another issue in getting the stator back on. I see the little keyway at the bottom, but it's not wanting to go on smoothly and square. Anybody else struggle with this? Tips?
they can be a bit snug, clean up mating surfaces with some fine sandpaper? use a bit of lube, LIGHTLY tap around perimeter with wood block.getting the stator back on. I see the little keyway at the bottom, but it's not wanting to go on smoothly and square. Anybody else struggle with this? Tips?
Thanks RT, Gary and Pete. Now I understand why a rewind may be preferred. I know I saw a recommendation or 2 on here. I’ll keep searching. Grizld1 and I think 5Twins had a redo for a place in TexasI just checked my database of suppliers and there is place called Racetech Electric in Carlsbad Calif. that lists XS650 rotors for $99. That may be the Chinese supplier place.
