Since I had measured the gauss of the magneto armature gap, as a lark, I was curious to see if there was any magnetic strength on the armature alone in free air. To my amazement, I found a residual magnetism ON the armature.
This was about 10% of the basic magnetism of the body.
So the armature will ADD 10% to the field when aligned in the aiding direction and subtract 10% while aligned in the opposing direction.
Potentially making a 20% total differential.
When at idle, the side with 10% less spark fails to jump the gap.
As it speeds up the bike runs fine.
that's my story and I'm sticking to it....for now
