I was just wondering about this and thought I'd try to get some opinions. I know this motor came out with a belt-driven generator as an option but mine didn't get it. Is there any possible way to add a rectifier so I can charge the battery? Could it wired somehow even though the motor doesn't have a power pack? Did they not use rectifiers yet in 1970? Or if they did was it just on this motor that it wasn't used? I guess easier way to ask is "Is there any way to install something to charge the battery on a points ignition other than the actual belt-driven generator?" Thanks for any and all info and opinions.
