Cycle Electric Motorcycle Charging Systems

Cycle Electric Inc. is a company specialized in manufacturing charging systems for V-Twin motorcycles by Harley-Davidson and some other American brands. In order to maintain a high level of quality, they purchase rotors from Harley Davidson and produce the rest of components and complete charging systems at their factory in Brookville, Ohio. Designed for V-Twins, the company’s assortment covers a wide range of models starting with the early bikes launched back in 1936 and ending with the most modern motorcycles.

Most motorcycles and cars use the same working principles when it comes to generating electricity and rely on similar parts available in different shapes and designs. In any setup, an alternator includes the rotor and stator which together generate alternating current thanks to rotation in the magnetic field. As this AC current cannot be stored in a battery, there is a regulator or rectifying regulator that performs a double function of converting this energy into DC current and making it stable and safe for the battery and other electrical equipment.

Commonly, an H-D motorcycle’s alternator produces at least 32 VAC at 2000 rpm, depending on the model. This value can be easily checked with the help of a multimeter. In certain modes, this very tool also enables you to test the rectifier having a more complex construction. If any of these parts go bad, you can find top-notch replacements in our store. Cycle Electric generators, regulators, and alternator kits are renowned for their high quality and provide high output and long-lasting durability. Depending on what you’re about to repair or restore, here you can order a complete Cycle Electric kit or individual components for your motorcycle at a reasonable price.
