Get a large capacitor from your local electronicshop
> 10.000microfahrad 40 Volt will do
the larger the better, that is the numbers of fahrad

Yup, track down to Dick Smith's and spend about $5 on a 15-20 volt as many microfarad capasitor as you can find. Mine used a pair of 15 volt 11,000 mic caps wired in parallel. Then you can ditch the battery, holder, air box, side covers and tool box. Replace the air filter with a K&N item, hold the wiring up with a perspex plate under the frame rails and zip tied in place. Cheap and effective.

Sjef, would like to be clear on the connection of the capacitor,this would just be inline instead of the battery? thanks,Bob

Bob,
connect the capacitor just like you connect a battery
- on black and + on red.
in many cases the capacitor outercase is -(minus)

Hi, Yes, I connected mine to the plus and minus from the battery leads...worked fine for many years. Not a lot of good for blinkers etc. down low though...that's been my experience anyway. SR  |
