does anyone have the factory specs or even better, real world tested numbers of a fresh rotor'd and good stator'd cb alternator? Idle output and at what rpm the unit comes on full song would be useful. Thanks

I was thinking about this over the weekend. I'll try to test the CB360 this week, assuming I can get her started.

In the mean time, could you have a go at answering this one?

alright........ NOBODY knows how many amps or watts the CB alternator is even factory rated to alleged to put out??????

NOBODY has ever even tested one?

come on guys, gimme a break

side note..... putting a 16 amp single phase alternator with NeoDi rotor on one of my Triumphs this week

it will run batteryless and not even need a capacitor

I may put one on anyhow, to smooth out the light flickering ripple pulses, but I've run them without a cap and with weaker alternators

Not sure of the amp output, but on the 73 cb350 i just finished up it was mid to high 12V at idle and was putting out close to 14 above 3 or 4k. Those are the numbers as I remember it but hey it is 6am and I could be wrong.
