Hello all. I have about 800 miles on my new to me k1100rs (121xxx miles). Today whislt riding home the alternator area began making a very loud rattling noise. When I got home (5miles later) I found my bike would not start due to dead battery (brand new oddysey battery). After charging and starting the bike I preformed a voltage test and found I was getting 11v with the bike running(dead alternator). Does anyone know of affordable sources for replacement alternators? Beemer boneyard is unfortunately sold out. Also, has anyone heard of db electrical? They claim to make an alternator for this bike. I'll post a link below.
