I have a 1975 Honda XL350 and would like to convert it from 6 to 12 volts. It is a kick start so the starter is not an problem. I can find an automotive coil and fix the spark. The lights are not an issue. But what I am wondering about is the alternator/ voltage regulator. If I only change the regulator to a 12 volt will it work or do I need to change the alternator also and if so is there a quick replacement? Any help is greatly appreciated
