Hello,
An unusual problem with the Vincent, too much charging current.
The bike has a chinamo, and J G unit, the charging current is steady
at around 4-5 amps at 50 mph in top, this is with the battery fully
charged. Have fitted my spare J G unit, it produces the same results.
The battery is fairly new and of good breeding, ie Varta.
Even with the head light on it still shows a 3-4 amp charge. My concern is that the dynamo will cook.
Someone tell me I am being paranoid. John.
