hello Richard , I found one on the website of "theodole"a dutch magnetospecialist I do not know the price but you can try www.theodole.nl , your pound is cheap compared to our euro so maybe it is not too bad and you do not find them on every corner of the street
good luck Chris

[chris.vredenbregt]

[nevhunter]

Hi all
Can I see a photo of the this type magneto ??

[chris.vredenbregt]

this is the one..Chris price ?????

[chris.vredenbregt]

By the way I have one ( not for sale) on one of my racers and I bought it recently for 150 euros + 110 restaurationcosts = total 260 euros. so these magneto's will do over 300 I suppose??...chris

[nevhunter]

That one looks rebuilt. that would cost about 140 euro's in australia. ( to rebuild) I guess the price is about right at 300 but If it was a good one I would think that was cheap. The Lucas Mags of this type are OK the main difference between Bosch and Lucas is the 2 bolts against 4 that the Bosch uses to hold the armature together. This doesn't matter much if it is not a magdyno where there is more load on it. Lucas make a racing one also. The BTH's were considered the best but there are not many V twin ones made..Nev

I have something similar to that, but it is all Aluminium. It has R 808 or something like it stamped on it.
I think it is later AMC? It has 4 holes underneath. No date though. The tag is gone / broken.
