Never heard of one of these put on a Dyno to Really measure HP and Torque but the original specs were " 5 hp/5.1 PS @ 8,000 RPM ST70: 5.6 hp/5.7 PS @ 8,000 RPM CT70H: 4 hp/4 PS @ 8,000 RPM From my Dyno Experience with Big HP Race Engines The HP and Torque Curves Peak at 8000 RPM's. That...

I would do a Compression test as I do on every bike I buy-Spec is 170lbs although I've never seen one that high. Once you have that number You can determine if that Engine is running at optimum performance. Although at 225 lbs my guess is your Bike is Running Pretty Good @ 35mph. These were not...

I use a 3/4 conduit bender from lowes-4ft handle--Works Great !

Maybe a Nylon washer would work- and the Key sw is not grounded at the frame as many have been lead to beleive- I just tested this a couple weeks ago while installing a new Key Sw on my 71 KO

So the build date for this bike was 4/71 ? I need to have a new Tag made- any recommendations ?

Just dawned on me that the numbers are 6 digits so it has to be a KO. Now the magical question- The Tag is missing so I don't know the exact year or month of build, anyway to track that based on the numbers ?

Looks like a 1971- Smells like a 1971 but the serial numbers says its a late 72 or 73. Chassis SN-CT70-263517 Eng S/N - CT70E-263299 Miles- 1425 This Bike appears to be all Original - Not one Nut or Bolt has ever been removed and the Paint is the best I've seen on the early 70's. Please Chime...

Anyone been there ? Good Show ? What to expect ? Camping ?

Just Like Pic 2 ! Yes there are other ways to get it run including a new CDI --I just want it Pure Stock as it was built in Japan-- Just Me ! I guess - All of my Bikes are original as they were produced at the Factory, I don't paint them- I repair them to original condition.

Thanks- I'm on the right track- Just want it how it came from the factory

So your saying that the existing Stator as shown is an H style, if so where does the Condenser Mount and where is the Neutral wire. This one seems different form my CT70 H's

K Boys here we go ! Shaft Depth just shy of 1 3/4 or 1.64 in see Pic. Chassis Harness Stator Plug has 4 wires including the Neutral wire for the Light The Speedo has 3 lights- Green- Neutral-Yellow- High beams- Speedo backLight. Do I have that Right ? t

K--I'll hold off on the parts ! The PO wired in a condenser scabbed on the Blk wire from the plug to the Coil. You know what the measurement should be for the Crank End. So the H's have a longer crank ?

Thanks for the reply ! I've been researching this the last few days. Thus far I've found that the existing stator plate and connector are not OE for this bike, I pulled the Harness and the Stator plug has 4 wires one of which is the neutral colored wire the same as my H's-Green with a Red tail...
