[QUOTE="69ST, post: 33972, member: 5"] Well summarized. When it comes to my personal bikes, I'm not a purist either with the exception of one show-quality resto. I do a number of concours-quality restos, but unless someone specifically requests a certain wheel bearing, it's more hassle than it's worth. Buying in quantity levels that playing field somewhat. As for the OE selenium rectifier vs newer silicon, other than appearance, who cares? I'd go with what best fits the application. For my bikes, function is top priority. Funny you should mention audiophile equipment. 30 years ago we used to laugh our asses off over things like IHF and ILS power ratings, redefining them as "if hell freezes" and "if lightning strikes":21: Since that time, even rms ratings have been watered down. I still enjoy my late `60s vintage MC275 amp and a 20-year-newer XL600. Going strictly by advertised specs, that shouldn't be possible. Known quantites, known results...not everyone's cuppa either...
