Tail, prices are , for what your cost to convert to 12 volt, minimal, have a look at his web site, classic car led's

Re: Conversion - 6v to 12v
Hi Folks!
Does anybody knows if this kit would fit also a 1958 Model 20? http://www.nsamotorcycles.co.uk/lucas-e ... 6976-p.asp
They said 500cc till '57
And what about this generator? Any feedback about this product?

That company may be a distributor for the alternator manufactured by Alton, France, who have two distributors, in Italy; Florence and Bologna.And what about this generator? Any feedback about this product?

The Germans don't even say nothing about Alton products. I presume it is something else.... Maybe built in Poland. Alton generators have a dubious reputation

Re: Conversion - 6v to 12v
The early ones had trouble with the nylon driving gear wheel stripping and I think electrical issues but I understand that has been sorted. I have no reason to change from the standard dynamo, nor any connection with Alton but two pals have done many miles with Alton generators and are very pleased with them.sunnybob wrote:.

Re: Conversion - 6v to 12v
Any feedback about the conversion 6v to 12v with the original lucas dynamo? Which is the difference for E3L newer than 1957?
