Hey all, names travis and I got a couple questions for you guys
so ill start off by saying im posting here because I read a forum on here about a guy asking if it was possible to rewind his vintage Yamaha stator. well I have kind of the same question, but only a little different, I have a 1975 Yamaha dt250 which came stock with a 2 coil stator that produces 6v AC one for spark and the other to run all the lights ... and I was wondering if it was in any way shape or form possible to rewind this guy into a 12v DC stator ... ive read of this being done, and called all the motorcycle shops around town, and no one has any information .... and or says its not worth it, well I got the bike and the wiring had been completely gutted and the only wires there were, was a wire from the magneto to the coil to produce spark
I do understand that by doing this im going to have to replace all the 6v bulbs and make them 12 v also ... but that's another reason behind this ... Id like to run LED lights all the way around it, here in Kansas when the winter season hits ... it can still be in the 60s and dark before im off work and the standard 6v's just don't appear to be bright enough.
another question I have is, if this is by any chance possible can anyone tell me a way or how to make a chaser circuit design kinda like the new mustangs have for their turn signals ... I have a cool idea for mine and would like them to light up sequintaly
any help would be greatly appreciated guys and gals ... thank you very much in advance
