    it is normal to have 1 brush wear shorter than the other due to distance travled on the copper rings per rpm

    Installed new stator and brushes. Alternator is putting out 12.6 volts while reving. Not sure where to go from here. Rectifier passed diode test.

    Were the carbs fully disassembled, cleaned, the old rubber parts replaced, fuel levels set, and then bench synched?

    Have you or anyone else actually ordered this part I’m interested but hesitant because no images and very little information like reviews or anything. Really want to get this bike back together

    I guess you DON’T really want to get your bike back together......I still have the part sitting here.... I’m putting back in the engine now so I don’t lose it.
