Motorcycle Headlight
motorcycle headlights without a battery?
i’m seeing custom bikes w/ headlights but no battery. (racer style cafe style etc.) are they hiding it, or running straight off the alternator/generator/magneto ??
obviously this would mean kick or bump starts only and headlights only while the engine is on. but how is it done?
They use a battery eliminator. This is a capacitor installed to replace battery.
Also many magneto bikes did not utilize batteries. (ex XLCH) The mag supplies power for ignition circuit and generator (dynamo) or alternator (stator) supplies power for all the rest. Some early bikes only had a mag for all power
And the lights are not only when the engine is on but only when it is rapping fast enough to spin generator and produce electricity. (no lights at an idle)
