IRK question

I was about to install an inner rotor kit on my panda, and then I thought about it. You can't run any lights with an IRK can you?

Re: IRK question

people say you cant run lights
well technically you cant charge a battery,,
i'm sure if you have 2 batterys and exchange them ,1 on charge and 1 in use

you can use inner rotor and keep changing the battery and have lights
the battery should last a good 10/12 hours without alternator

i know it sounds stressful which it is ,, its also the difference of $300+ between an outer rotor kit

Re: IRK question

i said should, it was just a guess
i have a battery eliminator one one bike and off-road ignition on the other
personally i've never owned a monkey / honda with a battery

edit:
how long would you expect monkey battery to last??

Re: IRK question

My skyteam 12V4ah. Headlight 35W tail 5/21W blinkers 10/10.
I think 45 minutes max.

If tail and blinker converted to led and 25 W headlight 1,5 hrs max?

(btw. I always drive with lights on)

Does a panda stiil run the 6V ignition tap? If it is a 12V cranktap you can run a lifan ORK with lightcoil. (My lifan 150 has one, keeps battery charged with lights on)
