It’s unfortunate that the vendors keep selling this junk that the unsuspecting buy thinking it will resurrect their motorcycle.

For Sale - Rewound Alternator Rotor
- Thread starter Jim
- Start date
Yes it is unfortunate. This forum has hundreds of members that know better and to get a rotor from @Jim and virtually no one else.
Not sure. If I also count the rotors for the Honda/4 boys.... prolly around 1,000.
In all that time, only one (claimed) failure. I say "claimed" because the guy was a flake. One day he'd say it's bad, the next day it was good. Who knows...
Told him to ship it back to me so I could check it but he never did... so I'ma go out on a limb and say no failures to date.
When I started rebuilding rotors six and a half years ago I settled on $105 as a fair price. I haven't raised the price since, until today. The cost of copper wire, epoxy, JB Weld... all my consumables has gone through the roof.
Today I'm raising the price to $115 with a core and $140 without (outright). Shipping in CONUS will remain $10 for now. That's a bit less than the actual cost, but I'm gonna eat that for now.
Sorry guys.

Had to rewind one for a customer. While I was tooled up, I went ahead and wound another. Price is $140 with $10 shipping added for a total of $150. If you send me a rebuildable TCI core, I'll refund the $25 core charge.
Cheers.
Cheers.
You did a great job on my rotor (thanks!) and I thought your price was way too much of a good deal...too low. Good on ya for raising it up a bit.
But it's still a screamin' deal!!

…..there’s one in every (fuckin’) crowd.
….and hey, we’ve got some Honda-4 people (good guys - no whiners) in our crowd. I will pass along your coordinates.
And yet another example of a Chinese rotor not being able to charge and run the TCI at the same time.

Riding season is almost done for the year. Planning that big "refresh" on your bike over the winter?
Start out next season with a freshly rewound rotor.
That or keep your buddy with a trailer happy so he'll come get you when your battery dies. Seems an easy choice to me.

Jim,I’m soooo glad to see that you’re still offering your unparalleled rotor rebuild service.An extensive revival of a 73TX has begun.Although a running motor is realistically quite a ways off,I’d like to be on your list when you are ready to do another for me.TYIA.
Just say the word, Don.
I’m going to get the original off now and heading your way tomorrow before I even finish getting the motor unhinged and on the stand.
