Thanks for the reply!! I’m still having a little trouble wrapping my head around this. I tried to test one of the coils by placing a probe on the terminal ring and wire before it routes out to the connector and got nothing. I then tested from the terminal to the connector plug and got a correct...

Howdy All, I’m attempting to bench test a stator that I’m working on. I’m unsure exactly where to put the probes. I’ve read contradicting opinions during a Google search, so I thought I’d try to clarify things. I’ll attempt to post a pic of what I have going on. My best guess it to check from...

Your bikes look great!! How much powder is needed to finish one? I’ve always painted, but may try the powder coated option.

This particular motor is from a ‘72 CT70. It’s in good working order...I was just thinking of a couple CT70 motors that I purchased for parts. One is missing the transmission (I believe it’s a 71 3 speed), but other than that, is complete. I’m a bit of a purist and like to keep things original...

Thanks for the info!! I assume the 3 speed transmissions from the mentioned bikes will be similar also? I’m not necessarily trying to upgrade to a 4 speed, but it’s nice to know that it could be an option. I was thinking more along the line of should I need a replacement 3 speed for another...

Posted in the wrong section...sorry guys!!

Howdy all...I’ve been building a CT70 3 speed motor and got to thinking about the transmission. Are there other bikes that utilize the same transmission and shift forks? I tried to cross reference part numbers between the CT70, ATC70 and XR70, but I’m still unsure. Just wondering if anyone has...

Thanks for the input guys. I have zero experience with the piggy backs...even on my larger bikes. Like you said Racer...it's a small job to replace them if he doesn't like them when he gets older. It's purely looks to him right now. I may as well let him do what he wants with the bike and keep...

I've never tried the piggy backs, but he likes the look. I'm a purist...so I hope that you're right and he is miserable riding it..haha. Here's the link to the shocks that he likes: https://www.ebay.com/itm/222397905602

Howdy all, I'm building a CT70 with my son and he's chosen, to my dismay, to go the non-traditional route and build something a little different. We're looking at an aluminum swingarm with the piggyback air shocks and are wondering if one of y'all have any experience with them. He likes a set...
