Hi Guys
Just wanted to make sure...OK to fit a cellphone charger on an old XT 600? It doesnt have an alternator, does it?
Im not worried about the battery (kickstart) but is the "output stream" OK for charging a cell, or would it "spike" and blow something?
Sorry if this aounds like a dof question.
Reason Im asking...Ive installed a Desert Fox cell holder/charger on the old bike, I find I would actually REALLY need to navigate my way around unknown towns for fuel/food/accommidation etc and its a HUGE issue, stopping every time to find your way around a new town

Thanks
