Hello,
I found an older thread about this perennial question. I am in the process of bringing back to life my old 1991 R100. I had several electrical issues on my two long trips I did back when I had more hair and 20 lbs less, i.e., 20 years ago. I went through 2 diode boards, 2 rotors and one regulator and had the opportunity to break down in very exotic locations around Europe and the U.S. Having enjoyed this unplanned stops, I decided to put the R100 at the very end of the garage for 14 years. Now I am in the process of falling in love again with the thing and see if this renewed marriage can get a second chance. I just want to be sure that these electric issues won't happen again. As part of my plan to restore the bike I want to redo the entire electrical system, new wire harness and new alternator/diode board/regulator. In light of the different options in the market, I believe the Omega and Enduralast are probably the best two options.
Any one care to share some knowledge and experience regarding these two systems (or any other for that matter)?
Thank you!!!
Jorge Muñoz
PS: I am sharing a couple of pics of the bike from those trips so you can see that it ran at some point...
