Hello, I recently purchased a 1972 75/5 and it in great shape except it needs a lot of electrical work. The starter was replaced and I have ordered new coils and wiring harness. This is my first motorcycle (I have only worked on dirt bikes through the years) so its a little daunting. My question is regarding on what ignition/electrical upgrades (if any) should I purchase for the bike? I live in Florida and plan to just ride the bike on the weekends around town. I don't plan to have any heated components or other items that would draw additional current. I want it to be as stock as possible but also minimize maintenance. While I am leaning towards a digital ignition upgrade of possibly Boyer or Endralast, would the alternator upgrade really be worth it for me? I am trying to figure out what’s really best for my situation within a modest budget. Thanks!
