light coil idea

<< < (4/16) > >>

BDI:
I thought of that but there is not a lot of room between the mag and the flywheel. Another problem is that there is a magnet inside the flywheel that triggers the spark and I'm not sure exactly how that works and I don't want to destroy a good flywheel to see. I basicaly need to do an autopsy on a flywheel to understand exactly how the trigger works.

Maybe we can just put a tesla coil on the bike then we could power the light with out wires :lol: :lol: :lol: that should be fun. I bet no one would want to pass you :lol: :lol: :lol: zzzzzzzzt- pow  :-D

BDI,
  You are on the right track.  Once you find a stator that fits it is relatively simple to wind it.  I wonder what ricky stator uses as a blank.  I also wonder how well an XR600 type stator would fit. Cam.

demographic:
Not sure if this helps but I tend to kind of hoover up photos of unusual KX500s whenever I see them on the internet, anyway I saw this one on Ebay a year or so ago with a serious lighting setup and copied the pictures to my hard drive.
Sorry that I don't have any more details about it.












The Flyin Hawaiian:
The coil on the KX pictured has KOR imprinted into the side. I have mentioned them before and they were heavily involved in desert racing. Not sure if they still are. There is a KX500 engine on Ebay that has a similar coil setup that is made by a company called Auto Tech. Does anyone know of this co.?
