Alton makes a replacement 160 watt alternator for preunit brit bikes using
the old Lucas generator. It looks like it would almost be a bolt on
replacement for the Bosch Guzzi unit. You would just have to adapt a pulley
on the front, which should not be to hard. They have a 3 inch diameter and
come with a solid state regulator

Here is a HD replacement that could also work

Did a bunch of research on alternators yesterday. The forklift one is
over $200 and tough to find because of a lack of available cores.

Most of the suitable rebuilt car alternators (Samurai, etc.) are
$150-200, counting the core charge. Still looking for a cheaper option
and working on the brackets. Does this alt. price scare all of you off?

Thanks!
