Hi Guys------ can a Powerbox be fitted to the earlier Classic 500 ? This is the type with the single regulator/rectifier fitted to the front,lower edge of the rear mudguard.........

Certainly can Alan but what is the reason for fitting it. Powerbox is capable of handling much more power than a 3 wire stator can put out

Hi Alan, the only time I fit a Boyer is if I fit a Wassel/Sparks high output alt or use a 4 wire alt to dump all the power into the battery. I find if I end up using a couple of Indian rec/reg units to get one that works it is still cheaper than buying a Boyer but they are a fit and forget unit.
