BMW R69 6V Mechanical Voltage Regulator
Norton 4 Brush Starter Conversion -
This is an article describing the conversion of the standard 2 brush Norton starter to a
more powerful 4 brush configuration. We have done several of these conversions.
Voltage regulator for 6 volt generators -
A compact modern solid state voltage regulator for 6 volt generators. This regulator was
specifically designed for the Miller D6 generator used on Vincent and other early British
motorcycles. It is small enough to fit inside the original Miller voltage regulator
housing. It will also work with the Lucas E3L and many other generators of that style.
Electronic Oil Pressure Gauge -
An oil pressure indicator intended for vintage motorcycle applications but suitable for
many situations requiring a simple electronic pressure indicator that is powered from 12
volts.
Battery Voltage Display -
A low power (always on) digital battery voltage display that allows constant monitoring of
the battery state both while the machine is in use but also while parked with the ignition
off.
6 Volt to 12 Volt Converter -
A small low power voltage converter to allow the operation of 12 volt devices such as GPS
units from a 6 volt electrical system.
