Generator Question

[jim wagnon]

Would anyone happen to know how many amps the generator is rated at on a ‘65 FLH?

Thanks,
Jim

Jim!
There is a 65 FLH brochure in the Club Library indicates.
12 volt system with 120 watt generator. Sooooo dusting off my HS math:
Watts x Amps = Volts
So we know 12 volt and we know 120 watt generator; 120/12 = 10 Amps.

Hey Paul, thanks so much for the informative reply. How would I go about finding the brochure in the library?

Thanks,
Jim

"How would I go about finding the brochure in the library?"

-Go to AMCA Home Page (Not the Forum)

-RIGHT Upper Corner of your screen is "MEMBER LOGIN"

-LOG IN
[This is 'tricky part' You will need to create user name and password.
The Home Page and the Forum each require log in.]
(Some particularly lazy people use the same info on both sites )

-ONCE Logged in hover mouse over Golden Word "FEATURES" in upper RIGHT corner.

-VINTAGE M/C LIBRARY is fourth option from top of menu. Click that.

-You will see on your LEFT in BLUE characters and underlined the words:
"Vintage Motorcycle Library AMCA Member Access Link" Click That.

-Search Box appears RIGHT upper corner: For Simple Search Enter: "1965" "Harley".

ENJOY! It is really a GREAT asset. Also once logged into Home Page you can access
digital copies of past magazine issues (Really good if you live where it snows). Can also
buy Merch and lot of other features.

Hey Paul, thanks much for the detailed instructions. I’ll admit I haven’t spent much time on the club’s website.

Update, your instructions took me right to it! This is a tough brochure to track down. I still hope to source an original.

correct formula : Volt x Amp = Watt ... U x I = P the law of Mr. Ohm !
