Re: light switch makes more power

Re: Charging problem 69 Dream

<br />Greetings,<br /><br />My Dream alternator is only generating approximately 11.5 volts. It seems like a simple system and I feel I can troubleshoot the problem myself? Otherwise the bike runs excellent and can be kick started all the time, but the started will not crank the ole gal over. Can a...

Re: Fouls plugs ??

<br />I have bought two dreams, a `68 and a `67. I have crossed the plugs over to autolite. I put in new plugs, they run perfect (like a dream ) for about 20 mins. then foul plugs.

Re: bad wiring

<br />I recently purchased a 64' 305 dream for restoration. It had sat for 5+ years without being started. The wiring was modified to bypass the battery (kickstart only). I have had it running for a couple of days now. Yesterday I started it and then turned the key to turn on the lights. The lights...

Re: rebuilt engine compression

<br />I recently purchased a basket case '67 305 scrambler with rebuilt engine. The pistons and rings are new. I don't know if the cylinders were bored and if oversized pistons were installed.

Re: Cylinder barrels CB77/CL77

Now I will just get the barrels rebored and fit oversize pistons, maybe high compression type.<br /> <br /><br />My advise is to get the next siz...
