Honda Valkyrie alternator.
« on: June 18, 2024, 05:51:33 PM »
I have a friend [size=78%] with a 2001 Valkyrie which needs an alternator. I believe its similar but not the same as a Goldwing. Its a long shot but does anyone have any parts lying around or know someone who does. I believe the original alternator is underwhelming so he wants a higher powered unit if possible. Any ideas anyone[/size]

Good luck on here Gary.  You / he might be better post on one of the Honda Goldwing Facebook groups or forums.

There's this but it's not particularly cheap: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/274438835531  :think1

Thanks Rusty. He was looking at one of those and I got a message from a guy who has one that I passed on. Also got a message to watch for cheap chinese version that doesnt last. What a surprise.

From my limited research the brand (Lactrical) has been around for ages and seems to be okay...  :popcorn
