Generator DGV-5000-L-BLK 12 Volt Low Voltage For 1965-84 Harley-Davidsons – Blacked Out

Cycle Electric DGV-5000-L-BLK black low-voltage generator (with regulator) for Harley-Davidson 1936-1984

Cycle Electric’s DGV-5000L low voltage generator is designed to bolt right into vintage Harley-Davidson motorcycles from 1965 to 1984—but it’s a killer upgrade for many earlier bikes. This is a complete charging system: a generator equipped with a Cycle Electric end-bell regulator.

The DGV-5000 is the go-to standard for genny-equipped motorcycles. Stop rebuilding old junk from the swap meet and bolt in reliability! The “L” (low voltage) package is perfect for a chopper that has minimal electrical draw. This “L” version of the DGV-5000 is equipped with a low-voltage regulator specially tuned for a small 12-volt battery. This is important when using a small battery in a horseshoe oil tank—heavy charging plus hot oil plus little airflow is a perfect storm to boil off your battery’s electrolyte.

This setup can also be used on older machines (pre-’65) when converting from a 6-volt system to 12-volt. (See fitment notes.) For added convenience, this generator is built for cradle clearance if being used on 1957-and-earlier models. This -BLK model features an attractive black finish on the generator and regulator body, unlike standard models which feature contrasting machined fins on the end of the reg.
