I have 2000 Roadking Police that I am bringing back to its former glory. HAHAHA
I had charging problems and the help on here was great. I have subsequently determined (after tearing primary down) that my rotor is screwed. The magnets have slipped around and are all clustered on one side. That would explain the sudden vibration showing up in the motor about 2 days before the battery went dead. I bought a new regulator and Stator from J&P cycle (cycle Electric) and now found that my rotor is pooched. The local harley dealer has been great and actually contacted the police garage that serviced my bike to determine if the rotor is special ??? or in other words heavier? They say no and they are all the same now. I want to believe that because the price for that rotor is way cheaper then the 45 amp unit? However I feel that mine had that 45 amp rotor? Will it matter other then I might only get 38 amps instead of 45 amps? I don't have much for accessories but want to do the right thing? They left me with idea that they upgraded them all now and they are all one size? What do you guys think?
Sorry for long winded story....
