    こんにちは。私は日本で 1929 年製の 101 を所有しています。

    私は最近参加したばかりの新メンバーです

    まず第一に、私の英語はかなり下手です。

    皆さんに説明できるか分かりませんが、質問があります。

    現在は6Vのジェネレーターが付いていますが、12Vにアップグレードしたいと思っています。

    crazyhorseで販売されているDU-5（DU-7）レプリカを使っている人はいますか？

    これらの部品は性能と寿命の点で耐久性がありますか?

    日本では6Vの電装品や電球が入手困難になってきています。

    12Vにアップグレードして長く愛用したいと思っています。もし使っている方がいたら教えてください。

    translation:

    Hello. I own a 101 made in 1929 in Japan.

    I'm a new member who just joined recently

    First of all, my English is pretty bad.

    I don't know if I can explain it to everyone, but I have a question.

    It currently has a 6V generator, but I would like to upgrade to 12V.

    Is there anyone using a DU-5 (DU-7) replica sold on crazyhorse?

    Are these parts durable in terms of performance and service life?

    In Japan, 6V electrical components and light bulbs are becoming difficult to obtain.

    I want to upgrade to 12V and use it for a long time. If anyone is using it, please let me know.

    Thank you for translating this into English.

    I intended to translate it into English and post it, but it seems I ended up posting it in Japanese.

    I have had good success with the Crazy Horse DU-7 generator in my 1927 Indian. The owner, Mark, has been very good to work with on a number of different projects. Good luck.

    Thank you for your reply. I feel very relieved to hear that information. I will consider introducing it myself.
