I've been meaning to convert to an alternator on my Eldo for a long time.
Gary Cheek sent me a small one-wire alternator that he always meant to
graft on to his before he sold it.

I took it down with me last week when I visited Bob Nolan, local Guzzi
guru, to get his idea on building the mounting bracket. He then showed me a
similar small alternator, and the bracket he had built to mount it, meaning
someday to use it on his guzzi-powered three-wheel car. It was a slick
bracket, so I asked him how much to build a similar bracket for my
alternator. He said, "I'm never going to get around to using this one, so
I'll just sell it to you."

I bought it and mounted it up, and now my Eldo really has juice (40 amps).
I ran it last night with my headlight on high, two front running lights,
two 55-watt piaa spotlights, four rear running lights, taillight, grip
heaters on high, and electric vest on high, and the voltmeter still read 14
volts. Can't imagine what else I'd need to plug in, but I've still got
reserve power. Saved 10 lbs in weight, too.

So, I've still got the alternator Gary gave me, and I'm offering it to all
you loopers for the same price he offered me: pay the shipping.

Anyone want it?

GF
