Electrical

I have a 1961 ES2 rebuilt and bought from old parts.

Can someone please tell me the resistance of the correct ignition coil as I think mine is drawing too many amps - 5 amps with the engine not running.?

Thanks 

I have an electronic rev counter off a Rotary that I want to fit on my Atlas fitted with a twin output coil, also has electronic ignition. It's simple Negative coil feed and earth but doesn't work.

My headlamp stopped working on low beam so assumed blown bulb. I ordered a 55/60w halogen one as replacement. Turns out it was a dodgy switch bulb was ok. 12 volts system 

Folks,

I am in the final of my Dommie restoration, the engine start and run well.

How is the best way to check dinamo/magneto works as expected ?

Any suggestion ?

I recently had a problem with our Jubilee. I converted to 12v, and fitted electronic ignition. All goes well we had a few rides out no problems.

Please could someone tell me if this mag is off a model 19 and if not what is it off?

On most of our bikes, the sealed beam unit is held in place in the headlamp rim by 3 or 4 wire "W" clips.Rummaging about in the garage today, thought I'd found a packet of these, but then realised although very similar, they were clips for retaing

I wonder if someone could advise me how I can stop the locking spring tag being loose so it doesn't stay in the position it should. The spring is held on by what looks like a washer on a peg so there is no means of tightening it.

I have just purchased a Dominator, and not having had a bike for a few years this is a new world and I am pretty "green" !

My Norton 650 SS has a positive earth which I thought would cause corrosion at the connections to the frame. The steel would become anodic in an electrolyte formed with moisture and hence would oxidise.
