So I think my voltage regulator crapped out. Opinions??
Symptoms: Lights blinked brighter a couple times
riding along at steady throttle. Then just stayed that way.
When I checked the voltage at the battery later on I
got the normal 12-13V at idle but as I reved it up it climbed
nicely through 14, 15, 16, and I stopped at 17+.
So I'm thinking the voltage regulator, whatcha think
before I go spending $$. Though I really liked the brighter
headlight while I was riding at night.
Happy Saturday

Tenni's in the junkyard indeed!...
....really quite understandable all this
Tenni 
envy.....sad that it comes across as --jealousy--tisk, tisk. and from such a fine fellow as Martin
On the positive (Tenni side ) of things, welcome #117 !!!! and very glad to see that the bike has found an owner that can appreciate a fine and rare bike !!
Cheers

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone. It's needed since we're looking at snow this weekend,
though I think we set a record for warm today???
Tenni envy I can understand it, I longed for a fancy black LeMans before I had the opportunity to aquire this truely
rare beauty. And remember one man's trash is another man's treasure.

in the hands of Jon Sutton. Feel free to update the registry at your leisure.

Just wanted to let you know #117 is in safe hands in Vermont USA.
It is returing back to stock nicely before beginning a personalization
by it's loving owner, ME
Here is a nice pic of it on Thanksgiving day out in the sunshine. (Though it was about 35 deg F)
As you can see I have this thing for special bikes.... that is my
1981 BMW r80 g/s PD. 60K miles this year. My wife rides
a cute little 1990 Honda GB500 as well as a 1979 V50.
We've got it bad.
Happy Sunday

Thanks, That's what I thought just wanted to make sure.
I shut it down as soon as I aw the #'s on my voltmeter.
I'm amazed I didn'y fry something. I saw your write-up
on the Electrex. I may go that route, not sure.
Happy New years Eve everyone.
