I appreciate the information and the hearing about your experiences! Staying with the stock wheels but using 120s on them sounds like a great plan. Thanks again!

I'm in the process of modifying a CT70 and one of the things I want is 12" wheels. I'm going with a +2 swingarm from Tbolt but I have a handful of questions regarding the idea of 12" wheels. Tbolt also has a set of one piece aluminum 12" wheels that will bolt onto the OEM hubs. I don't hate...

When I put the wiring harness back into my 73 green ST90 K0, these voltages at the headlight were equal - no differences. So I'm thinking all of these are easy fixes. Rick Thanks for the reply Rick! Do you mean the lowbeam and high beam voltages were both 6 volts??? Thanks again!

I don't mean to hijack this thread, but i've got a voltage related queston for my 74 St90. The low beam on headlight doesn't work, and I've assumed that the low beam side f the bulb was just burnt out. I was doing a little more diagnostic work tonight before I odered a new headlight just to...

Well Rick, I completed the swap of the rectifier and did a rebuild of the inline fuse assembly between the batter and rectifer, inserted a new 15A fuse and started her up. Fired right up and ran smoothly with no lights on. Then, as it was running, I hit the horn then turned on the headlight...

Rick-This afternoon was the first time that I'd noticed there was a red/white and a simply red wire coming out of the fuse holder. They very well could have been reversed at one point. I didnt have a 15amp fuse, so all I could use were 10s. I'll pick up some 15s and make sure i have the...

Thanks for the reply Rick. Here's an update... I replaced the original rectifier with the Radio Shack model and the symtoms I desribed earlier still exist. The bike starts right up, but as soon as I use anything electrical(lights, horn), the fuse blows and the bike dies. I'm not 100% sure...

Quick question regarding voltage issues.... My ST90 will only start and run when I charge the battery before every time I ride it. I tested the 2 red wires coming from the bike to the battery and found that the wire coming to the fuse at the battery was showing approx 30 volts DC! It had...

I don't mean to hijack the discussion as I'm looking forward to hearing how Jered's issue turns out, but I'm having a similar problem, but I know mine is electrical. When I test the voltage at the battery from one of the 2 red wires that connects to the battery, I get a voltage of around 30...
