Replace them with a single unit R/R. Bad or not, one of them will go bad eventually, nip it in the bud now instead of being stuck out on the road somewhere when it goes bad. Best $40 you can spend on your bike IMO.
You can pick up one off Ebay for $40 or less from a year or two old Honda CBR1000RR or take the lazy way out and get one from Duanage.
My thoughts exactly! I even ditched a working R/R on the '80 for a sh541c-12.
But he said money may be tight for him.
a properly working system even if close to 30 years, with GOOD CLEAN connections may last even longer still.
and the stator still needs to be checked, so no loss there.
what I had in mind if he would like to look at using it... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/e...3266&ih=022&sspagename=STRK:MEWA:IT&viewitem=
