Jim,
The first thing I would do is be very sure the battery terminals are clean
and that the connection of the ground strap from the engine to the frame
is nice and shiney. Then I would check the output at the generator to be
sure that the generator is the problem. You might also check that you don't
have a faulty battery no matter how new it is.
If you decide to swap to an alternator the simplest (and most expensive
route) is to get an aluminum bracket from one of the Tiger suppliers and get
the alternator that they suggest. The alignement issues should be taken
care of.
Or you can ask the list and try to find a cheaper bracket that works and
go with an alternator that has worked for others. You should find
recommendations and guidance for the needed alternator and wiring on this
site.
