I can't see a brand name on it, be useful to know if it's Bosch or Marelli? 73 Edlorado

Many thanks

Bosch I believe.I'm pretty sure that all 850 models were Bosch equipped.
Which voltage regulator do you have? Two coils, Bosch.Three coils, Magnetti Marelli.Amboman will correct me if I'm wrong.At least I hope he will.

1970 T120 Bonnie. 2009 500 Bullet.

Thanks Dave I'd read the same but who knows what's been changed over the years? Took a pic of the voltage box. I think I read the Bosch/Marelli boxes and dynamos are not compatible with each other so suppose this shows the dynamo is definitely Bosch.
Cheers

Metal band around the rear, both terminals on the circumference = Bosch. Marelli has no band and one terminal is on the back.
