to six-five-o... because the banshee magneto post is nine pages of "will this work or not" and one page of "yep it works" with all the pertinant info contained right here in this thread. i would swap em.

www.cokaste.de/4655/4682.htmli dont know what they are saying but their adapter plates looks easier than jb welding a banshee plate on. hmmm... according to this site you can order them shipped for $20 www.650rider.com/Forums/viewtopic/t=199.htmli've emailed the guy in germany making them to see if we can still get them. anyone else who is interested in this let me know and i'll see if he will give us a break.

So we now have two sources for a bolt-on adapter plate. - Terry Gliddon in Australia (toota@iprimus.com.au) - The German guy (What's he sayin'?) www.cokaste.de/4655/4682.html (kalle-droste@web.de) Cool. Nickswan, count me in on one of those German plates. I like the additional contact area provided by the countersunk screws.  |

I think you may need an RZ stator bracket to use that adapter. I glued my Banshee bracket to the block because there was no room behind it for an adapter plate. The Banshee stator is thinner than the RZ [or othe three phase] stator so I'm assuming that the bracket is taller to compensate for it. Anyone have an RZ stator bracket that you can measure?

I think you may need an RZ stator bracket to use that adapter. Looking at the photo on that site, it does appear that there is an additional plate between the stator and adapter. So this is an RZ -exclusive piece? The plot thickens... |

i assumed his bracket included two pieces, one mounting to the case and one that the stator mounted to. and then bolt them together. still waiting for a reply from germany.

the spin on filter on the sump plate looks interesting too. i wonder if it replaces the sump filter?

I have read this thread through several times, and have won a stator, plate, flywheel, and regulator on E-Bay. We have quite a selection of capacitors here at work, and I'll try to sneak one home. My total cost was $86.35, including shipping.
I also have a Boyer ignition waiting for me at home. My wife keeps asking why I am buying parts when I am in the Indian Ocean. LOL
It's so nice to be on a ship with internet.

I've got mine JB'd on. But if the $20 bracket thing works with a Banshee stator plate I'll be chippin' and wire-wheeling that stuff right off.

I'm trying to keep up. Can a rotor from something other than a banshee be used? And I just bought a new rectifier from MikesXS. Can I use it or did I just waste 45 bucks.
Thanks

I believe that a rotor from any RD (250, 350, 400) or RZ (the Banshee motor is basically an RZ) will work but the stock Rectifier (or in your case, the Mike's replacement therefore) will not.

Any updates from those running this setup? I have a line on most of the parts for this, so I'd really like to hear some of the feedback that you guys may have!

I might have screwed up somewhere. This setup is going on my 78 chopper that has a stock rectifier and separate regulator. I'm I correct in assuming that I no longer need the regulator? The rectifier that I just got from ebay has 6 prongs on it. And a female plug like my stock replacement part. Where does my wire for the coils plug into. I'm heading out to my shop now so hopefully I can figure this out before I get back to the computer.

Apologies in advance for this but Ive given myself a headache trawling through all these posts/threads re. this alt/rotor conversion - I'll make it short... Are your yank RD's the same as the RD's here in the UK? Are you talking about the early air-cooled 250/350/400's or the later LC's? 'Banshee' or RZ models ,never heard of them...!
From what little has sunk in its best to go for these as they slip straight on so to speak ..
Is there one definitive post or link that someone can direct me to that wil explain the process in a couple of paragraphs,Im a spannerman not an auto electrician ...
Cheers
