I?d like to put a fuse in line so I can break the circuit when charging it with the battery on the bike. If you all remember, I have a strange problem when charging, where the Iights turn on (ignition and lights are off). You can?t turn them off until you disconnect the battery. Won?t even turn off just pulling the charger off. No one has been able to figure this one out. Everything is fine any other time. So throwing an in line fuse in, I could just pull the fuse. Just want to make sure I but a high enough fuse in (it?s not acting like a fuse, more like a jumper in this case). Also - what date is the gathering ?

Got my answer. I forgot there is the in line fuse on the negative side already. 35 amp. So just need to duplicate this on positive side ( I can?t get to the existing fuse, too far buried when battery is installed). I want to be able to just pull the cover, and pull a fuse to break the circuit. I?ll put a 35 or higher on this side, to act as my jumper. Still need date of gathering though.

I agree with Russ, solve the problem. Remember that on the MKIII there are two positive grounds (and two negative connections as well). There are the heavy leads for the starter and smaller leads for everything else. The long time debate is the fuse size. While many British bikes use a 35 amp fuse there has been a lot of debate about the comparison of the British 35 amp to the US 35 amp. I never worried about the difference but the "experts" say a US 25 would be equivalent to the British 35. Are you using a Podtronics or similar type voltage regulator.

While the ground from the battery to engine on a MkIII is substantial and is designed to carry the load of the starter is not suspect in this case, you may be right about the ground from the engine to the harness or to the headlight shell and or the podtronics voltage regulator. If I remember the story, Joe said that it took a while for the headlight to come on when charging and it continued to get brighter until it was at about 1/2 power. I'm pretty sure I asked him if he had a pilot light and I think he said either no or the pilot was not on.

It's nice to know you at least had intentions of being there. It would have been fun to take your bike all apart! Now for your questions, spark plugs are normally set at 0.025" for coil ignition. If your plugs burn clean (correct mixture) then I like to open up the gap to 0.028" to get a hotter spark but that is just something I've done for 50 years. As for plug brand, your NGK's should be fine, many owners like the original Champion N7Y but I don't have good luck with them and I use an Autolite equivalent, usually #44 but the base is not plated and will rust over time. Does not hurt performance but looks unkempt. There are several Autolites that are equivalent and the racing equivalent is plated. I've used them all at one time or another. Your battery question is more difficult! If you ask 30 members individually you would get 30 different answers. Some prefer the least expensive (cheapest) wile others like the best (more expensive). Some like the smallest you can get by with, 7 amp hour and others the most reserve 12 Amp Hour (for not Estart Commando). Estart should be 14 amp hour to meet factory specs. Most owners prefer the sealed batteries to eliminate battery acid getting on the bike and removing the chrome. In almost all cases the sealed battery of the same physical size has a lower true AH rating but the maintenance free function is worth the trade off. I hope you get other opinions to lead you in some (I won't say right) direction. Now let us know what battery you were using and how long did it last?

Dudley Jr.) Date: Tue, 16 Apr 2019 18:09:27 -0400 Subject: [dvnr] help needed with Pazon install Message-ID: I'm changing the ignition on my 71 Commando from whatever it was that was flaky to a new Pazon. I followed the directions, and I have done this before (the Pazon is just like an old Boyer, same pickups on a circuit board, etc) and yet, when I kick the bike over, all I get is an enormous pop out the air filter. I have the Sparx 3 phase charging system on the bike, and a small AGM battery that is in good shape. Questions: Is there only ONE timing mark on the alternator rotor? What I think I see is a raised boss about 1 cm wide, with a line scored at about the middle of the raised boss. Is that scored line the timing mark, or is there some other mark I should be looking for? The Pazon instructions say to turn the motor over until the timing mark is at 32 or 28 degrees (they give both numbers and I don't know why), and then to install the rotor on the cam shaft with the red dot visible in the "anti-clockwise" window. I think I've done this, and yet, obviously, I've failed, since the bike won't run. Thanks for your time. -- Bill Dudley From dud at casano.com Tue Apr 16 19:46:02 2019 From: dud at casano.com (William F.

Rich Casey was first with the right answer. The Sparx alternator has TWO marks, BDC and TDC. So I had a 50% chance of getting it right when I did the initial install. I've since found the OTHER mark, at TDC, and set the Pazon up to that mark. Tomorrow I'll try to start it, and assuming that's successful, time it with my light.

Knock wood. If the weather is good expecting over 1000 bikes which will be a challenge. I need parking volunteers at 9AM when people start to show up. All event forms/insurance have been submitted to Park. Food guy is set up like last year. We have tee-shirts. 20$ for ours and $5 for the Shelton leftovers. I will try to coordinate volunteers. Just show up and ask me how you can help. I will try to rotate people to let people enjoy free time. Volunteer Duties: Parking, Bike Counter, 50/50 Sales, DVNR Merchandise Table,Clean-up crew. Parking organization ? Will try enforcement of Norton area. Like herding cats but at least we can say we tried. Expected post gathering meet-up for refreshments at Wycombe Inn.

Good turnout of club members - and I think Dan even picked up a few renewals so they can keep getting his exciting emails! Ive seen a few pics on Facebook - and posted a few. This email is to get the beginning 2019 mileage all those who wish to participate in the annual Pete Gallo Long Distance Award which is awarded each December. Please forward your mileage, the year and model of your Norton - and VINs if submitting mileage for MULTIPLE Nortons. I will use ending mileage of last year's participants, but hopefully we can get a few new contestants this year.? Please email me the descriptions and mileages at your earliest convenience. Thanks.

Sincerely, Howard Nenner -----Original Message----- From: DVNR On Behalf Of GEORGE via DVNR Sent: Monday, April 29, 2019 7:56 PM To: dvnr at casano.com Subject: [dvnr] Gathering Update and other news Norton Riders, Thanks to the 27 nortons that showed up on an iffey weather day and helped make it a successful event. We probabably had 400 to 500 people show up and I have a lot less tee shirts now. May 19 will have a breakfast meeting at 11AM at Orlandos in Hopewell NJ for those not attending Classic Motorcycle Day in Maryland http://classicmotorcycleday.org/ We have a club member with a special bike for sale. As you know there are not too many new Nortons out there and now you could own one. FromTony Reed I regret to say I have decided to sell my Norton 961SF as I need the money to buy another toy. The bike is clean and runs well, has low mileage still. I wanted to offer it to a club 1st before I list it on EBay. I'd like to get $13500, but will accept a reasonable offer. If someone from the club is interested have them call or text me for more details 201-638-3213 _______________________________________________ DVNR mailing list DVNR at casano.com https://mailman.dudley.nu/mailman/listinfo/dvnr UNSUBSCRIBE: mail to DVNR-unsubscribe at casano.com
