Hi Folks,
On my K 100 RS I wanted to put a simple volt indicator on the bike. Thinking it through and having spent a fair bit of time in the past talking with the incredible Professor Eric Laithwaite at Imperial College I knew I was not really interested in an actual value whilst riding just knowing it was "all right". I carry one of those really low cost small digital multimeters in the tool kit for troubleshooting if I were to have a problem. I bought a BackOFF voltage monitor from the friendly folks at Cyclegadgets
