Motorized bicycle Magneto can we build a better one.

Something that's sorely needed on these bikes.

I hear you brother we're trying thank you so much for watching ride safe out there

[@ELISRACINGTEAM]

Good stuff, great job Kevin

[@KevinTodd]

Thank you brother and thank you for watching we'll be doing testing here pretty soon I still got a lot of stuff I got to get out of my shop that I'm working on and the weather has really been bad lately so you be careful out there and you ride safe

[@2strokecarbtuningportingin187]

Had same problem years ago the primary stator heated up and engine died. Exactly the same. Simple fix was loose the primary stator coil. Took me two break downs before i swapped the stator coil. Sadly it tested ok with ohm meter

[@KevinTodd]

Mines testing OK two that is the only thing I haven't changed and I got to thinking about what would cause this heat vibration wearing through to the bare wire shortening the contact length then heating up and dying that's what I'm thinking anyhow I hope you're doing good bro thank you so much for watching

[@ArkMachine]

Thanks for sharing this Kevin. I have several old mags that need this.👍

[@KevinTodd]

You're very welcome there's still a lot of testing to do but I'm pretty sure this is my problem

[@Op1zilla]

Love Shop Stuff, Now you got me wanting to do one just to do it, I have 2 old ones thats still good, Cool Stuff to watch an learn Kevin 👽👍🏻

[@KevinTodd]

When I get a chance I'm going to post a video on the test results to see if it works and then I'm going to post all the links to everything that I used in there and exactly how it's was done thank you so much for watching brother and you ride safe out there

[@michaelbrinks8089]

I seen a video of an old scooter alternator/stator repaired/rewound like this because nobody sold stators for it anymore. I'm still on my 1st coil from 2020. I think possibly because I coated the new coil in harbor ⚓ freight clear 2 part epoxy to make sure no moisture got into it. I'm not sure if coating it helped anything but it sure didn't hurt & was only 50 cents.

[@KevinTodd]

Yes it probably helped keeping the wires from vibrating and wearing through to the bare wire and that is what I think that has been happening thanks for watching brother you ride safe

[@glenssmallenginecreations]

Very interesting and educational..great stuff bro thanks for sharing 👍

[@KevinTodd]

Thanks for watching Rela we'll get it tuned up and get it set so much for watching

[@mybikes1970]

Reminds me of childhood days testing a 9 volt battery with my tongue 👅 ⚡ lol Great idea to wrap them yourself. I have to try that, thanks bro 👍🏾

[@KevinTodd]

Let me do a little bit of testing and stuff get all that worked out and I left you a message on Facebook thanks for watching brother and you ride safe and be careful out there

[@mybikes1970]

@@KevinTodd ok cool 👍🏾😁

[@mikemiller3303]

That's pretty interesting Kevin but where do you get the enamel coated wire from and how do you attach it to the coil?

[@KevinTodd]

I got the wire off Amazon they come in 50 gram rolls and I'm going to do some more testing before I tell everybody run out and get this so I feel as though this is a better Magneto and the epoxies high temperature epoxy and it's not going to let the wire move within the coil so hopefully this is going to work but I got to let the weather clear up down here

[@theLyzhendricks]

0:02 that got a good giggle out of me 😂

[@KevinTodd]

I couldn't see it making any spark.I thought I saw a faint spark and that's real low R.PM's so hopefully we can get the rpm down at idle.But yeah, it did hit me pretty good.That's the reason I was switched over to the forever.Love.Thanks for watching brother.You ride safe

[@lachlanbruce5566]

This is very interesting I’ve burnt through heeps of these coils there definitely a big weak point but thanks for uploading this I’ve always thought of rewinding coil but didn’t have knowledge to know how to do it I very much appreciate it thanks

Nice work 👏 👌 much more power 🔋 💪 after you worked on it 👍. 🎉🎉🎉🎉

Good morning Dave you got to hit that bell brother thanks for stopping by

[@2strokecarbtuningportingin187]

@@KevinTodd the bells been hit on from day one

[@leonardarola]

Careful now. This thing bites.

[@KevinTodd]

Yes it does and the first part of the video I couldn't see any spark or just a faint bit of spark and you do know in the other testing that they never made spark until over 1000 RPM's well it wasn't running nowhere near 1000 so hopefully we're going to get spark at a lower RPM thank you so much for watching brother get your build done and ride safe

[@leonardarola]

@@KevinTodd please make this story a comic book. But for real, careful.

[@ErnestoRoman420]

You ARE ABSOLUTELY CORRECT, about the BBR cdi , I purchased a "stage 3" for better performance supposedly, But ITS COMPLETELY GARBAGE !!!!! RIPOFF

[@georgebell8826]

I just had this same problem with one of my avenger 85s and then it eventually just quit completely

[@KevinTodd]

Actually I think in the video if you look I think that one just died too I'm pretty sure it's the Magneto we'll find out in Part 2 I thank you so very much for watching you ride safe out there

[@dustinh4175]

I bought an ngk 5k ohm resistor plug cap/boot in an attempt the eliminate the bad frequencys frying my cdi. I have no clue what im doing

[@KevinTodd]

A lot of products used in these bike engines and parts is cheap inferior stuff we just have to sift through it to find out what does work and to make it work good thank you so very much for watching brother ride safe out there

[@Littleevil9975]

Excellent video bro great topic for sure can help a lot of people out

[@KevinTodd]

Thank you so much for watching brother.I'm thinking this thing is gonna make fire at a lower RPM than a 1000 so we'll see.Thank you so much for watching. And that biker is running some Fine

[@Antiguaandbarbuda26884]

Funnily a topic I'm very good at ok ohmes is a electrical unit of resistance lesson 1 wire's are measure in gage lower the number thicker the wire if you no a transfer repair shop you can find copper wire the magnetor wire is no difference I could easily rewire a mag to ohmes just use the same gage wire to repair high out put mag would be lower ohmes thicker gage wire.How I know is because I've been rewire sound system speaker voice coil for year's now never got my ohmes wrong 💯

[@KevinTodd]

And really what I was trying to achieve was spark at a lower RPM but wire size doesn't really make any difference within a changing electromagnetic field but I do think that it does fire at a lower RPM because in the first of the video I couldn't see any spark or I could see just a faint spark and then when I touched it lit my *** up thank you so much for watching and yes you are very correct ride safe brother

[@2strokecarbtuningportingin187]

Is this live

[@KevinTodd]

No it's not live it's a premiere but you could still chat on a premiere

[@uketunes3148]

My bike started doing this yesterday! Had me tearing apart the carb, ordered a new magneto and cdi. Put the this back together this morning and it seamed to be fine. I wonder if my bike has the same thing going on. Thanks for the great vids man!!!

[@KevinTodd]

I threw away about 7 or 8 that were just bad so I figured let's try something new and it seems to be working great it seems like it idles very good at lower RPM's and it just works good and it's a simple fix and it's a hopefully a permanent fix thank you very much for watching brother and ride safe

[@notsure2024]

I bought a engine kit from e-bay and it's like it has a governor in it or something it 30 mph it stalling and you have to let out of the gas or it slows down to 25-28 if you don't. is in cdi or the carburetor? I got your stickers today thanks

[@vancemacd6315]

My guess is the coil is overheating. Grab a spare.

[@KevinTodd]

I'm pretty. Sure.It's overheating what I'm trying to do is prevent that and probably the vibration, not rap tight enough or rap too tight.We're at war through the enamel.And now you've got a shorter path.We'll see thanks for watching brother ride safe
