chappo Posted March 6, 2017 Report Share Posted March 6, 2017 This may seem a silly question to you engineering and welding 'bods' out there, but I'm trying to minimise work and potential damage. I usually have the footpegs changed when the bikes in bits , but this time I'm short of time and I'm going to take the complete bike in to have the later wider pegs welded on. The question is, do I need to take the stator plate and coil off to prevent damage to the electrical circuit during the welding process , may be different if I had electronic ignition, but this is coil and points. Thanks guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sherpa325 Posted March 6, 2017 Report Share Posted March 6, 2017 I am not that great with electronics, but I have electric arc welded footpeg mounts on many Bultacos, with the points ignition system intact, and have never had a problem.
