From my collection of 'gems of wisdom'. I cannot take credit nor can I
attribute it. BTW, I'm not sure this will work for a Marelli generator,
so.....

 Buy a Dodge car voltage regulator. The NAPA part #is UR32SB, but shop a
bit,
because you can pay $40 for the same item.
Great post - wish I'd known this about 3 years ago. Further data:
The regulator is for a 1969 Dodge Monaco (among others). Wells (& Auto
Zone) part number is VR706, *NOT* the VR733 which is used on virtually
all
Chrysler products. I paid $10 for one.
If undercharging is the problem, and it often is on Guzzies; I suggest
a
'60s Dodge voltage regulator, available at NAPA for $14. Part # VR3258.
Two wire hookup - small - cheap - ideal voltage. They will BTW, work on
any
Guzzi, alternator or generator
