Four Wheel Forum

Don't ride my rebuilt CA95 much but finally go around to adjusting everything so now it starts very good and runs good so will use it more. Over the past few years this clutch discs would stick a little and I could rock the bike back and forth and they would release. Yesterday drove it about 10 ...

Had it out last weekend with the Grandkids and it operated the way it should. Just need to adjust the air a little and hope it starts a bit better. More snow again so will be a few days again!! Will be waiting for yours pics Foamy.

Wouldn't have been able to rebuild this bike had it not been for this forum and the help I received here. Haven't driven it yet, maybe you can see why!! The snow arrived April 18, Spokes don't you miss this?!
Don't have a before pic but it looked fairly good. Hope I have a picture attached, my ...

I think these are off my ca95 but can't find where they go

Things seemed to be working mostly ok one night, the next day things that were working weren't working. Decided to open the ign. switch up. The person that worked on it last had the part with the wires on it inserted wrong.....off by about 1/4 turn. Cleaned it up, was quite guncked up and put it ...

Checked out things a little more and I think I didn't have the rectifier grounded well enough. The rectifier checked out ok after I pulled it off the harness. With the rectifier connected to the harness and the switch unplugged should the voltage at on the wires that woudld go to DY and SE on the ...

With the switch removed yesterday and a jumper wire up to each connection on the harness everything worked (except don't know about the ign/chrg system) when I put the switch back in I think everything worked except mybe the tail light in one of the key positions. Don't know what I might have ...

This is the third time posting a reply must have been too long winded as I had to relog-in and by doing so lost my reply. Will write shorter ones.

By The Lake thanks for the explainations and rec. sure makes things move along much better.

Did find your old post about rectifiers last night so ...

Thanks for the pics. I still working on how to get mine loaded, got my album now trying to figure out how to move pics. into it.

My switch looks the same as both the key side and back side as the pics. from Spokes and By The Lake. the number on the key side is different if that makes a difference ...

I don't know yet if the voltage drops off for the Ignition coil, head lamp, speedo light and tail light.

The top line are key positions as they relate to the small spots on the switch front. The left column is the wires on the back of the switch and further along on the wire harness. The other numbers are the voltage readings on the wires. I changed some of the voltage numbers tonight.

After checking ...

don't have the motor on th bike but jumped wires from the harness to the wires on the motor except the wire to the condensor ( and maybe one more...will check) will also check to see if the motor is grounded to the frame yet.

Don't know where to start....the switch seems very messed up. The '64 ca95 operated electrically ok the last time used (25 yrs ago) but won't work now.

The key moves and stops at six positions, the switch looks like it was apart before, the BAT wire had been resoldered and had to do that again ...

I took it apart but don't know if one of the forks was in the wrong position or not....the shaft that the forks connect with stayed with the bottom of the case when I lifted it off. Have it back together again but and can get it into all of the gears but won't feel good about it until I get it ...
