Motorcycle Repair: turn signals, z50 honda, honda z50

Question
QUESTION: Hi...I have a honda z50 made for Jincheng..which are out of business...and i got the headlight and tail light and brake light working. But need to know if u know how to wire in turn signals..All it needs to pass safety inspection...the tag on frame says its a 2000 year and parts ordered have worked for a z50 honda bike.

And it looks just like a z50 except gas tank looks different shape.

Any help i would be thankful for

ANSWER: Roger, Im not to sure but here is some info that might help.  A company called Quingi was making the copies and called it a monkey bike. I used to sell these, the importer is in Madison Wisconsin under the name of Midwest Motor Vehicles. They used to sell the complete bikes then stopped and then only handled the parts for a while. They may not be in business any more. They had an 800 number to call if I can find it I'll shoot it to you. Gary...

QUESTION: yes it is considered a "monkey bike" as what the internet calls it...Just a honda 49cc 4 stroke motor that honda made and Jincheng put there name on it...got the signal lights working just dim..is it possible to splice a power amp into the wire to boost the power going to the turn signals only?

Wiring amp into the wire before it goes to flasher to make them bright enough to see?

Thank you for ur help and ur awesome...will write down that company name and see if i can get a phone number.

ANSWER: Roger, The stator that is under the flywheel may not have enough power to run this electrical circuit also thats why the lights seem dim. You could try stepping up the amperage but it may or may not work.

QUESTION: So got another question:  How do motorcycles re charge the battery?

If i were to take all the wires from the magneto except the kill switch wire and the ground and connect them to negative on battery to recharge battery or do i hook them into positive side of battery and run the battery wire to ignition switch.

The ignition switch doesn't have a separate connection for headlight,tail light etc

Or wondering how hard to convert 6 v to 12 volt battery

Thinking of making a custom bike frame that will hold the 49 cc engine and put me a little higher of the ground

Thank you for for your time

Answer
Roger, Kind of a basic is that the stator has multiple coils that the flywheel magnets excite causing the to generate voltage. There are usually 3 wires that go to a voltage regulator and each leg can generate about 12-15 volts. The regulator changes it from ac current to a useable 12 volts to keep the battery up. The regulator is like a heat sink and has cooling fins on it to dissapate the heat as it reduces the voltage to keep from burning out the other electrical components. I'm not sure if this makes any sense.
