Re: Modern 3 wire alternator wiring There's one of those invisible bolts on that exhaust clamp. Great for weight saving...  2CViking wrote: God knows what else you didn't notice.

It's the two fathers I never had  The exhaust bolt had to com out to get the original alternator off. And it looks like it may have just been the angle of the dangle with that exhaust stud  Harley

Re: Modern 3 wire alternator wiring This might have been asked before.... what output is that alternator rated at? (tried to read sticker in photo!) Always in the market for a higher output alt
