I am having a bike with the magneto system, the electrics are run off the engine... My headlights are working probably a quarter of their full brightness. In this magneto system that i am not to familiar with what it going wrong in the system????? Any thoughts would be much appreciated. Thanx.

    My guess (from personal experience) would be possibly the stator coil located inside the flywheel......

    Mine gave me some grief a few years ago.....ended up replacing it, unfortunately NOT cheap. <_<

    Found that THIS site has everything I've needed for my 550.....OEM parts for @ least 1/3 less than any dealer I've encountered.

    Remember, the 550 has a "wet" mag.....so these symptoms could be caused by something as simple as dirty oil :blink: ...found that 1 out the hard way also. :rolleyes:

    Best of luck with it.

    Any questions......PM me ;)
