Hi All,

At the Western NY Rally I saw a great mod that Dale Petersen did on his
Eldo. It was an alternator used in place of the generator. It was very
slick
and I would like to try and do this on my bike.

The alternator I believe was from a Geo Metro. I'm not sure of the year
but
when I called the local auto parts place here in Canada (eh?) they quoted
me
on an alternator for a 3 cylinder Metro...year 1996. Does anyone have some
info on this that they can add? Do I have the right year?...the right
engine? I know nothing about Geo's.

I believe the company is Nipo Denso (sp?) I would like to have the right
info before I call the scrap yards. By the way...if I buy one new it will
cost me $187.45 cdn.....over $100 usd. I would pay it though if it worked.
With 35 amps of power I'll be able to light up :-)

Much appreciated....Ian
