A good description (with pictures) of the electrical system is here:

Vech sells an updated copy...I've not seen the new version...

Hey all,
I got this 1969 R60US in parts. Got it all put together per Clymer manual and some help from the board. It runs but not good enough to ride. I need some help getting the timing right. I think something is not right in the timing / advance system and I don't know if it's a broken part issue or assembly error. I followed Vech's tech data on assembly and timing but something is still not right. So, I was hoping there was someone in LA that would be willing to show me the details in exchange for cash, a good BBQ meal or ? I've got a trailer so I can come to you. PM me or reply to; ahdoman@socal.rr.com
