Alternator Rotor?

I'm looking for a good alternator rotor for my 82 heritage special. I just found out that we're going to have a baby so I don't have much cash. I do have plenty of parts I could trade as I have chopped my bike. I know this is a much sought after part, but if anyone has an extra it would be greatly appreciated.

God Bless.

shaydaddy,

Well, that's a pretty expensive part that's much in demand, as you say, so do you want to review how you determined that your's is fried?

tested the slip rings with my ohm meter. they are reading 1.5 to 2 ohms resistance.

pamcopete,

I spoke to you earlier this year about your ignition system when I was out of work and the resistors fried in my TCI Box. Since then I have replaced the resistors, set up your twenty dollar reg/rec. combo, and redid the wiring on the bike. I think the rotor was weak when I bought the bike and shorted out when those resistors fried. as the bike runs great now just won't charge.
