This thread also reminds me I need to do something about a fork brace.  That RSW brace might work.  How well do the dust boots fit with it?  I at least see them on the bike in the pics.

I mounted my RSW brace like this, No modifications to the boot but I had to shim the brace to get a good fit on the fork tubes. Hope that helps.RSW fork brace.jpg

Turning Wrenches / generator brushes
March 24, 2023, 12:38:27 AM
How much do the brushes effect charging? Rotor seems to test ok as per manual but when I check voltage at the battery with the bike running it jumps all over the place. After 5 to 10 min of running at various rpms voltage drops to 10 or so.  Then if I pull the battery and check it after 10 min it gets back to 12 volts. :bang:  AGM battery that's not that old and I re-charge it before testing. Running vintage smoke ignition and rick's regulator/rectifier. I cleaned the face of the rotor up with 600 but I'm leery of the brushes because they aren't square to the face of the rotor.

What a bummer!!! I had him do my top end, O-ring head, fix squish and mild port work with the super sick exhaust manifold set up. I love to have another set of those.

Hmm. That's pretty slick. Anybody know how difficult it would be to mount that tank to an RD?
