Condenser Location

Post by lewarcher » Wed Jun 15, 2011 3:37 pm

I just got a new set of points and a new condenser. Seeing that I would need to drop the engine to remove and install the new condenser, has anyone found a better place to bolt it onto?

I think I ended up bolting it near the coil on a bike I had about 20 years ago but, I can't be sure. Does it need to be bolted to something like the engine or the frame in-order to be grounded? Or can it go anywhere?

You can put it anywhere that will ground.

I have mine on one of the cam chain tensioner cover bolts, but will eventually move it.

Either next to the coil or under the points cover seem the best place to me.
