Mon May 28, 2012 7:22 pm

If anybody has a spare alternator for a GPz; ZRX; ZX; ZZR laying about, that looks something like this:

(ie and air-cooled alternator - not one that runs on the end of the crank)
would you please WEIGH it for me?

I'm considering adapting a bike alternator to run on my racecar.

well suprisingly (or perhaps not :lol: ) - I do have one of these out in the 4th.

Weighed it tonight - about 1kg. Maybe a tad over, that is just using some bathroom scales......actually lighter than I thought it would be ? An alternator like this one would be easily adapted to anything really......

Awesome! That is lighter than I expected! Thank you for doing that!

There isn't perhaps one for sale about?

*Hits eBay*

Thanks again.

no probs - you should be able to find one of these easy enough, the same sort of alternator was used on all the motors based on the GPz900R....also check Findapart.

Thanks Captain!
Could you please put one on a scale for me, and flick me a price and if possible, a pic?
Oh - would you be prepared to box it in some bubblewrap and throw it in the mail?

Thanks!
