Having transferred over to a '93 GSPD from a standard '91 GS, one of the key differences (apart from the tank) is that the charge light no longer glows whilst waiting at junctions. On the GS I needed to keep the revs up to keep it off whereas on the PD it sits quite happily at tick over with the headlight on.
The question is: is it likely there a problem with the old bike's charging system (although I've been told 'they all do that') or is my newer bike equiped with a higher output (and if so how can I tell?). As I ride throughout the dark winter nights, I'd like to fit additional lights if possible but would never have dared to do so on the old bike.
A secondary question is where can I get a higher output sidelight and can you up the output of the standard headlight?
Really appreciate guidence on this
