Just found the forum and getting a new 2 me 1983 R65LS in a week or 2.
Owned 1 a few years back and sold it  :( to Bob of Bob's BMW.
Am wondering about upgrades to the electric system & if anyone has upgraded to the 450 setup?
Looking forward to sharing & receiving here.
GREAT FORUM!!  :D

Welcome to the herd, Scrat.

Add your home location to your profile so we can all know where to send you the money. ;)

If you've lurked a bit, you know what we say... If there's no photo of the bike, it doesn't exist.
Like our Airheads, we like to keep it simple.

Welcome Scrat.

IIRC, Suecanada has a 450 watt alternator on her bike. (?)

Yes, Sue did upgrade her bike with the Enduralast(?) unit (I think it was that and not the Omega, but I'm having a "Monte Moment")...

You both are right. I did get and installed the Euromotoelectrics upgrade system from John Rayski. I have answered Scrat by PM already too! Both systems very good and well worth the effort and if i can install it successfully with my concusion problems back in the Fall of '08, anyone can do it!!!
