Did I miss something here? You have taken apart the ignition, the alternator is on the other side of the engine. BTW, you need a new ignition.

It was my first time taking it apart. Misread the instructions. All is well now.

How important is the ignition?

your ignition lights the fire


plainly your bike runs but I'd be surprised if the advance unit(the rusty thing) is doing it's job.

I tested the rotor after cleaning it and it came up .6 ohms. I'm off to replace that as well as the reg/rectifier. Guess that was the problem. Thanks for all the help. Really appreciate it!
