Yep!
I'll be offering custom cast generator stands later this year, which will allow straight forward fitting.

Yep, they're pricey abroad - Already have the cast, just waiting for the copies

I reckon it'll be a welcome and long overdue break from troublesome dynamos, voltage regulators and flickering red lights...

Just what I've been trying to source for the last couple of years. Please let me know what's required and what is available and how to do it. Electrics do not worry me, mechanicals do! (I'm still learning!)
If available soon, I should be able to fit before the Norwich Union Classic in mid-October. Possible?
