The starting capacitor comes into play when you are not running a battery or the battery voltage
is too low to start your bike. If your battery is always fully charged, you would never need this capacitor.
We have trouble obtaining the same looking capacitor from our suppliers, but at this time this is what the capicitors
look like. At this time the economy capacitor also includes the mounting spring.
They are all positioned in the above picture so that the negative lead is on the right and the positive lead
on the left.
The positive lead sometimes has a red dot painted on this lead or next to the lead.
The negative lead sometimes has a black dot painted on this lead or next to the lead.
Some times the polarity is printed on the side of the capacitor, like the negative lead currently has on the Andover Norton capacitor.
The original capacitor had a double male .25" wide terminal on the negative lead and a single positive .2" wide terminal. At this time, both capacitors
we can obtain have a singal male .2" wide terminal on the negative lead and a single or double .25" terminal on the positive lead.
To attach a new capacitors you will need to modify your wiring harness.
The current prices for our capacitors are:

$29.30.
